    1 Day for the K.I.A. 12 Hour Endurance Run

    April 18, 2026 10am-10pm

    'To support the children and siblings of those who have been killed in action, missing in action, listed as prisoner of war, or deemed 100% disabled due to their service by assisting in the child's education through the Living Legacy Scholarship.

    REGISTRATION COST GOES TO THE ORGANIZATION SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO HOST RACES. ALL DONATIONS BEYOND REGISTRATION COST GO DIRECTLY TO THE LIVING LEGACY SCHOLARSHIP - THE MOST TANGIBLE AND ICONIC MANIFESTATION OF OUR MISSION.'

    Runners have exactly 12 hours to cover as many miles as they can. They are allowed to sleep, eat, leave and come back, and even flat out stop running whenever they want to - whatever they want to do get the furthest mileage possible. Due to the rules and structure of this type of run, it simply tests one thing: How far can you push yourself?

    We also have a 10K option for those who still want to support us outside of the 12 Hour Endurance Run!

    Location: The Ohio State University Oval

    Registration Options: 12-Hour Solo- $60 12-Hour Solo Virtual- $60

    10k Race- $30 12-Hour 2 Person Team- $110

    12-Hour 5 Person Team- $240 12-Hour 6 Person Team- $270

    • The 10K is In-Person or Virtual. You will receive a t-shirt! The 1DK trophy is exclusively for the 12 Hour Endurance Runners. The 10K will start at 8am with the Ultra Marathon! *
    • Registration includes a race packet with a race t-shirt, race bib, medal and more!

    Sponsored Runners: One of our premier fundraising methods is our Sponsored Runners. Before the run, these runners will secure "sponsorships" from friends, family, and anyone who may want to contribute to the cause. By "sponsoring" a runner, these donors are agreeing to donate a specified amount per mile that their runner covers in the 12 hours. With this setup, each literal step forward made by our Sponsored Runners is symbolic of the pain they are willing to endure and their desire to bring positive change upon our deserving families through the Living Legacy Scholarship.

    If you register as a sponsored runner or team, you will need to become a fundraiser when you go through the registration process

    Fundraising: Thanks to the generous contributions of others and the all-volunteer aspect of our team members, 100% of the profits raised through:

    • Sponsored Runner Sponsorships

    • Corporate Sponsorships

    • Day of Race Donations

    • Scholarship Specific Donations

    go toward our Living Legacy Scholarship endowment fund. Race registration fees are traditionally attributed to race and organization operational funds.

    Get ready for the 3rd Annual Kicks for Kids 5K presented by The Running Outreach Initiative and Buckeyes for Public Health! Taking place at The Ohio State University's Recreational and Physical Activity Center (RPAC), the Kicks for Kids 5K will take you up and around the university's beautiful Oval, finishing in the shadow of historic Ohio Stadium. The races will take place on Sunday, April 19th near OSU's Bike Hub next to the tennis courts (find parking info below). The 5K will begin at 10 am sharp, with the 1-mile Fun Run/Walk starting just a couple minutes behind. The sign-in table will open at 9:15 am, and refreshments will be provided. Even more, Brutus Buckeye will start the races!

    As part of The Running Outreach Initiative's mission to increase the accessibility of running, registration prices for this race have been set as low as possible. Additionally, we have plenty of free stuff to offer you!

    Registration includes:

    • Entry to the 5K or 1-mile fun run/walk

    • ***Free race T-shirt (sign up before they sell out!)

    • 1 free raffle ticket

    • Race bib with chip timing

    • Photo opportunity with Brutus Buckeye

    • Finisher's medal

    • Snacks & refreshments

    Prizes are up for grabs! Top male and female age group finishers will each receive a gift card to a local business, with age groups being 11 & under, 12 to 14, and 15 & up. Additionally, each participant will be granted a free raffle ticket to apply for a range of prizes, with further raffle tickets costing $2 each.

    Lace up for change! Revenue from race entry fees and raffle tickets will support The Running Outreach Initiative's cause:

    • The Running Outreach Initiative is an OSU student-led nonprofit whose mission is to enrich the lives of elementary and middle school students through the power of running. This accessible sport provides health benefits and social opportunities, though many of our coaches have also experienced the role that running has played in developing their character, including their self-motivation, grit, and confidence. TROI wants to remove the financial barriers to participation in this incredible sport, therefore all revenue generated from the Kicks for Kids 5K will be used to purchase brand-new injury-preventing running shoes for the ~100 youth athletes whom TROI coaches in the Columbus area across its programs at Graham Elementary & Middle School, North Columbus Preparatory Academy, South Columbus Preparatory Academy at Southfield, and A+ Children's Academy. Learn more at https://www.instagram.com/runningoutreachosu/.

    • Buckeyes for Public Health is an OSU student organization partnering with TROI to organize this event and raise funds in support of TROI's contributions to youth public health in the Columbus community. Learn more at https://org.osu.edu/buckeyesforpublichealth/.

    This year's race will be held in the Recreational and Physical Activity Center (RPAC) at The Ohio State University on Sunday, April 19th, 2026. This will count as a USAT Collegiate Nationals qualifier. An indoor triathlon is based on time rather than distance, allowing all levels of ability the opportunity to compete! There will be a 10 minute swim in the indoor competition pool. Then there is a 15 minute transition that allows you to change into biking clothes/get situated at your stationary bike. The stationary bike ride will last 20 minutes. A 5 minute transition is then given to allow you enough time to get to the track. Concluding the race is a 15 minute run on our indoor track. Prizes will be given out to our winners.

    Prizes: This years prizes include a Roka Wetsuit! The top male and top female finishers will each be awarded a certificate to purchase a wetsuit.

    Race Wave Assignments: Subject to some exceptions, collegiate racers will race first, followed by open racers. Preliminary wave assignments will be posted on April 12th, 2026 and will be emailed out. Any registrations after April 12th will be placed in the last waves.

    We will not be taking requests for specific wave placements.

    Registration Deadline: While there is no official registration deadline, the race does have a maximum capacity. Please, keep this in mind.
