Join us this Memorial Day for the Red, White & Run 5k!
This is a chip-timed event. Run to remember the heroes who gave their lives in service to our country and dedicate your miles to someone special. Net proceeds from the event will benefit Motts Military Museum.
The Red, White and Run 5k is more than a race - it's a chance for our community to come together in remembrance. Families, runners, and walkers of all ages are invited to participate and share who they're running to remember. We will try our best to share all those names at the finish line! Whether you walk or run, every mile carries meaning. Net proceeds from the event will benefit Motts Military Museum and it's mission to honor, educate and preserve the stories of those who served.

The 15th ANNUAL DARBY CREEK TRAIL RUN - 5k + 10k
The course will be a 5k and 10k trail run through the picturesque but challenging terrain of Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park. The 5k is relatively flat and can be enjoyed by runners and walkers of all skill levels. FAMILY FRIENDLY!
The 10k is a true challenge ending in a stair climb that has become infamous among the Columbus trail running community.
In keeping with FLIP's goal to encourage a cancer-preventative lifestyle, FLIP encourages every fitness level to come out and enjoy the scenery!
Running strollers are allowed on the 5k course but not the 10k.
FLIP recognizes that cancer prevention requires a dynamic shift in our thinking and is empowering individuals to engage in preventing cancer using a holistic approach:
Fight- Fighting together to challenge cancer risks outside of our individual control.
Live- FLIP is all about having fun and living life to its fullest... the best way to prevent cancer!
Inspire- It's so worth it to challenge yourself to reach out to friends and family (We'll help you!)
Prevent- FLIP aims to make prevention fun, approachable, simple, and community-driven.
It's easy to "FLIP" -- We are connecting community partners to provide an entire support network and building an interactive website that aggregates and simplifies everything you need to know. It's engaging! FLIP is not only an attractive, energetic brand; it's a movement empowering people to shape & make it their own along the way.
It's fun! Get out and enjoy being active with friends and family. Stay involved throughout the process via social media, organized activities, and unique outings.
