Registration is $20 and can be completed online at www.ymcacolumbus.org or on race day beginning at 7:30 a.m. at the park.

Local event sponsors include Kingston National Bank, Constance Care Home Health Care, The Savings Bank, Circleville Sunrise Rotary Club and TS Tech (Trimold, LLC), to name a few.
