About the Franklinton 10 Miler and 5K
Both courses run on the paved Scioto Greenway trails through Franklinton, so the footing is smooth and the route follows the river corridor. It is a spring race that fits naturally into training cycles, with the longer distance serving as a tune-up and the shorter one as a season opener. The surroundings are open and urban, with the trail doing most of the navigating for you.
The race supports a local children's charity, and donations are open to anyone through the race website, not just registered runners. It is also part of a local race series, so if you are building out your calendar, it connects to other events around Columbus.

The Franklinton 10 Miler and 5K has been held every year since at least 2016. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
