The 5K for Kids' Mental Health
About this race
Start and finish your race at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field, soak in the electric atmosphere, and be part of something bigger than the finish line. Can't make it to Columbus? No worries! Virtual participation lets you run or walk from wherever you are.
This isn't just a 5K—it's a movement. Together, we're raising awareness and funds to advance the mission of The Kids Mental Health Foundation: to provide free, expert-created mental health resources to support kids.
