Run To Feed The Hungry - Half Marathon, 10k, 5k, 1mi & Kids Dash

Run To Feed The Hungry - Half Marathon, 10k, 5k, 1mi & Kids Dash takes place in Columbus, in central Ohio, on November 14, 2026. A kids' fun run opens at 9 a.m., then the half marathon (13.1 miles), the 10K, the 5K and the one-miler all start together at 9:15. Every race is chip-timed, and the event supports local food banks.

A 9:15 start is unusually late for a road race and takes the guesswork out of breakfast: eat normally, arrive warm, and you can skip the pre-dawn routine entirely. The half still needs its 12-week build with a weekly long run, but the shorter distances here are genuinely casual, and strollers and leashed dogs are welcome. Entry includes a technical cap, a shirt, a finisher medal and post-race refreshments, and parking is free.
