5k Run Walk

The route is on the flat, paved city streets of Delphos and Stadium Park along the historic Miami-Erie Canal. Along the 3.1 mile course you'll

learn interesting facts about the waterway so you'll learn while you burn. The race starts and ends in front of the firehouse located

on Second St with refreshments provided after you walk/run. Stick around town for the "Under The Big Top" parade which begins

at 2 pm.

Registration to guarantee a t-shirt ends on Sep 10th. Race day registration and check in begins at 8 am. You have the option at registration for

the t-shirt option or no t-shirt which is cheaper.

Awards of the much coveted Official Canal Days 5K mug to the top 3 finishers in each age bracket and a first place award to the fastest male

and female to cross the finish line.
