Scioto Miles Race Series
The Scioto Miles Spring Race Series takes place in Columbus at Genoa Park along the Scioto Mile. This event series consists of two separate race dates in March, providing participants with the opportunity to prepare for spring half and full marathons. The course follows a 5 km loop trail that offers views of the surrounding area. Runners can choose their preferred distance for each of the two events:
- 5 km
- 10 km
- Half Mile Kids Run
The 10 km distance is completed by repeating the 5 km loop. The course is marked with arrows and cones to guide participants. A dedicated half mile run is also available for children aged 12 and under, and all participating children receive a finishers medal upon completion.
Participants who register for the full two race series receive a variety of event gear, including a pair of ASICS running shoes, an event shirt, a custom running hat, and two finisher medals. Those who prefer to join only one of the dates may register for individual races, which include a medal and either a shirt or a hat depending on the specific date chosen. Packet pickup is held at Fleet Feet Lewis Center in the days leading up to the events, with limited bib and apparel pickup available on the morning of the race at the park.
