The world is your runway...or the runway can be your racepath at the John Glenn International Runway 5K Run & Walk.

On Saturday, Sept. 16 at 9 a.m., you can race along the runway at the north side of the airport. Not only will you get to enjoy amazing views of flights taking off, but you’ll also receive a race medal, race t-shirt, and a swag bag.

Plus, you’ll be running for a cause, as proceeds will go towards Honor Flight Columbus. The organization celebrates senior veterans + the 2023 goal will be to fund a full flight for the veterans.

Only 1,500 racers will be permitted, so it’s recommend to sign up ASAP. Registration is $50 and is open now.
