This 5K fun run course is mostly flat and great for first time runners and walkers. The race is not timed. For 2024 the course has been revised. Same streets...new route. 

 

The course will start and finish at Vent Haven Museum on West Maple Avenue behind the Mercedes Dealership in Ft. Mitchell.

 

Don't delay in registering. The registration price at Packet Pick-up and on Race Day goes up to $40.   

 

For In-person participants, the $35 registration includes t-shirt, race bib, and a chance to check out the new exhibits of the new Vent Haven Museum building!

 

There will be a Virtual Race option as well. Support Vent Haven Museum from your corner of the world by signing up for a virtual run and completing the 5K at your own time and place.  Vent Haven Museum will mail your t-shirt two weeks after the race. Cost is $40 to include shipping. 

​
