About the Scioto Miles Spring Race Series
The course runs along the Scioto Mile at Genoa Park, right on the river in Columbus. It is a loop course, so you come back through the same stretch, with the city visible around you. The terrain is paved and flat, which makes it a good early-season shakeout before longer spring races start showing up on the calendar.
Packet pickup happens the two days before each event at Fleet Feet Lewis Center, with race-morning pickup available as well, though shoes cannot be picked up that day. The park is a familiar spot for Columbus runners, and the start area sits close to the water.
