Join us on the morning of July 13th at Columbus Running Company's Dublin location for the CRC Mile Dash! The CRC Mile Dash is ready for you to join us to celebrate CRC's 20th year as we support runners of all ages and abilities in the classic American distance: the MILE!
The Highlights!
- The Mile Dash is a MORNING event, no more 95F start temps like the old days!
- The Mile Dash now has SWAG! Choose your t-shirt size during registration while supplies last and you'll go home on race day with a super-soft t-shirt!
- The structure of this year's High School Challenge will again be based on registration numbers for each school. 25% of all registration income will fund the prize pool for schools, with these proceeds distributed 50% to first place, 30% to second place, and 20% to third place. The more registrants for the event, the more money your school can earn!
- The CRC Mile Dash is part of the 2024 RUNColumbus Race Series. Learn more!
- You'll be running or walking a single mile, it's the CRC Mile Dash!
- There will be awards for top male and female competitors in the Women's and Men's Elite heats, as well as age-group awards for those in the Grasshopper's Kids Dash
- You can run or walk to support local high schools (click here for details).
