About the Love Every Breath 5k + 1 Mile Run/Walk

Both distances follow an out-and-back route on the Little Miami Scenic Trail, with turnaround points marked by arrows on the path. The trail is shared, so runners keep right to let others pass. It is a fundraiser for pulmonary fibrosis research, which gives the morning a clear sense of purpose beyond the race itself.

Packet pickup runs the evening before at Fleet Feet Oakley, with race-morning options at the start area as well. Parking is available in the lot shared by Fleet Feet and the local brewery, and across the street on Wooster Pike. After finishing, the post-race gathering moves into that same brewery, where showing your bib gets you a hot drink or fry.

Common Questions About the Love Every Breath 5k + 1 Mile Run/Walk

Will I finish last at the Love Every Breath 5k + 1 Mile Run/Walk?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 31:06, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:30:28, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Love Every Breath 5k + 1 Mile Run/Walk a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (106 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Love Every Breath 5k + 1 Mile Run/Walk?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 19:15 while the median finisher took 31:06. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
