Kentucky Open Road Racing #4
2025-08-02 10:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Columbus
Every race in the series will be hosted by Turtleback Ridge Brewery on their family farm at 6769 Mt Pleasant Rd Ewing, KY.

The start and finish line will always be in the same place, on the pavement at the edge of the entrance to the brewery. As a racer it is important that you arrive early to check in and be prepared for riders meeting at 9:45 am. The race will begin at 10 am and all riders are expected to be in staging at that time as the waves go out in short intervals. We can not delay the race for you.

The race is hosted on a family farm and the majority of parking is in grass fields. If there is a lot of rain we will do our best to accommodate you. The driveway to the tap room, race start, etc is gravel. Prepare accordingly. We will be using the farm house at the start/finish area for morning check in. If you would like to wear regular shoes or boots to get from the parking area to the start/finish you can leave a drop bag with us at the house until your race is over.

The awards ceremony, food trucks, and all after race celebrations will be held at the taproom.

Wipe Out Cancer 5K

Wipe Out Cancer 5K is raising money for the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, as the search for a cure for Multiple Myeloma. The Wipe out Cancer 5k is being organized as a fund raiser for the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF) and all proceeds will be donated to the organization.

A little back story on the race director:

“I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma cancer in Oct 2020. Multiple Myeloma is the second most common form of blood cancer and has a 5-year survival rate of about 60%. By March of 2021, they were able to get it into remission, it will come back. On March 24, 2021, I was admitted into the James and received my dose of Chemo. On March 26,2021, I received some of my Stem Cells back and then was released 10 days later the cancer being in remission. It is still in remission today, I know the cancer will come back, as there is no cure as of today, and this is where MMRF comes into play. They are searching for a cure for Multiple Myeloma, but as of today, there has been great progress in keeping the cancer in remission, but no cure. Before the cancer, and for the past 14 years, I have done many races. Anything from the London Marathon to the Spartan Beast. 5k’s, 10k’s, 15k’s, half marathons and 25k’s. I wanted to keep going after my treatment and 11 months after the treatments, I was able to complete the Warmup Columbus Half Marathon and 2 weeks later the Ft. Lauderdale A1A Half Marathon.

In return for my fundraising, I was given an entry into the NYC Marathon on November 2,2025. This will be my 2nd World major, with London being completed April 2024. I intend on making this an annual event and hope that many will run, to show their support for the MMRF and their research to find the cure for Multiple Myeloma.”

With our partners at Asics and Race Penguin, we’re happy to bring back

The Fast Rabbits Summer Nights Race Series!!!

Presented by: Asics and Race Penguin

Come race with Fast Rabbits all summer long!

One of the most frequent questions we get about Youth Running is “What are some kid friendly races that have a lot of kids running?”

While we can always recommend any Race Penguin event, we thought to ourselves: there should be a kid-centered event. One where kids could come and try out running events if they were new to it, or challenge themselves to run further or faster than they had before. Maybe even get ready for their cross country season in the fall!

So what is this?

A three event race series to take place in June, July, and August!

RACE DATESJUNE 12th JULY10thAUGUST 14thThe races will start promptly at 6:00pm in the evening, so parents and kiddos can get to the races on time!

Sounds great! Where are the races?

We have a loop course at Glacier Ridge Metro Park. The races will start at the Dog Park area of the park (Google Maps pin here)Course Map (1 and 2 mile options)available here Course Map (1/2 mile option) available here

That’s fun! How much does it cost?

Individual events are $15.00 each, with an optional t-shirt add-on of $10.

If you sign up for all 3 events at once the cost is $40.

That’s a great deal for a summer of racing!

Anything else I should know?

Our partners at Asics will be at each event to hand out fun goodies and some snacks for pre/post run.

We’ll have some popsicles for after the race for athletes and parents to enjoy!

Make sure to craft a sign at packet pick-up to help you cheer on your young athlete!

Race day schedule is listed below:

Registration tables open at 5:15pm

1/4-mile race (5 and Under ONLY): 5:55pm1/2-mile race: 6:05pm1-mile (Grades K-5): 6:20pm1-mile (Grades 6-12): 6:35pmAll-Comer’s (Adults) Mile: 6:50pm2-mile (Grades K-5): 7:05pm2-Mile (Grades 6-12): 7:35pm(kindly note this schedule might change before race day based on registration and/or other factors)

My athlete has never raced before, can I run with them?

Yes, you can!

However due to to course and safety limitations we must stipulate that only 1 parent of a registered athlete can run with them at a time.

Otherwise, we ask that adults stay off the course as much as possible and let the kids have their fun!

Oh, What about Packet Pick-Up? Where/when will that be?

Packet pick-up will be at the Fleet Feet Lewis Center location (google maps address here)

The event series packet pick-up will be at Fleet Feet Lewis Center.Exact dates are to be determined, but will be announced shortly

Will there be on-site Race Day registration and/or Packet Pick-Up?

We will have race day registration, and packet pick-up!If you are registering on-site on race day, be sure to bring your phone and/or credit card as our friends at Race Penguin will have a QR code to sign up using your phone.Volunteers may be able to assist you by walking you through on your phone, but may not be able to help sign you up.

How do I choose the distance my athlete will race? Can they switch distances?

Sure thing! We understand that young athletes have their ups and downs just like adult athletes. It’s best to talk with your athlete multiple times before race day to see what distance they’d like to run. Try to ask them if they’d like to beat their previous best mile time, or try a new distance. It’s always good to remind athletes that it’s ok to be nervous about a race, but just remind them that they’ll learn something from each race experience no matter how it goes.

Athletes should try to make their decision before the race if possible, but if they need to switch after doing one loop they need to immediately tell the Race Penguin timing staff so we can ensure correct results.If they are switching from the 1/2-mile race to another distance, DO NOT START WITH THE OTHER 1/2 MILE RACERS. Please see the Race Penguin staff before the start of the race you’re planning on racing so they can switch you.

You will select your distance FOR ALL THREE EVENTS during registration. If you need to switch a distance for a particular event, please reach out as soon as possible.

The Blessings in a Backpack program in Marysville, Ohio, provides non-perishable food every week throughout the school year for children who might benefit from supplemental nutrition. We currently serve five elementary schools — Edgewood, Mill Valley, Navin, Northwood, and Raymond — as well as Creekview Intermediate School. Every ‘blessing’ bag we send home for the weekend includes, at minimum, two breakfast items, two entree/protein items, and two healthy snacks. We also send extra items home for long weekends and extended breaks to help keep bellies full until kids return to school. We are 100% community-funded, meaning we couldn’t do what we do without the support of individuals, groups, churches, businesses, and organizations committed to ending childhood hunger and food insecurity alongside us. Thanks to the generous support of our community thus far, we’ve been able to serve anywhere from 140 to 285 kids per year since we started in 2012, and we are committed to standing in the gap for families in Marysville, Ohio, for many years to come.
