Youngstown-Warren Training Notes
Youngstown-Warren, OH hosts 100 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Locals run Mill Creek Park first, because we run in one of Ohio’s most beautiful parks. Mill Creek MetroParks gives runners over 15 miles of trails around lake Glacier, lake Cohasset, and lake Newport. The East Golf Hike & Bike Trail is fantastic for steady Z2, and the East Cohasset trail by lake Cohasset stays smooth with new stone. The Old Mill area brings the hills. Youngstown Road Runners Club meets for regular club runs, and Fleet Feet Youngstown runs a free Thursday 6:00 PM 3-4 mile loop. Sole to City, Panerathon, Youngstown Peace Race, and Youngstown Ultra Trail Classic anchor the calendar.
Riders use the same park-heavy map, then stretch base miles through Austintown and Belmont Avenue. Bike Belmont starts and ends at Wick Park, with a 32-mile ride to the Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport, a 12-mile neighborhood ride to Churchill Park, and a 5-mile family-friendly ride. Outspoken Wheelmen, CycWard, YoGo Bikeshare, and Cruise the Creek give the local scene some shape. The Canfield through Austintown bike trail is nice for steady spinning. The climbs sit around Mill Creek Park, especially the Old Mill area, where runners and riders both feel the grade.
Summer keeps the city busy without making the routine complicated. The Struthers 4th of July Parade 5K and Kids Fun Run land in July, and the Falcon Glow Fest 5K and 1-Mile Fun Run hits Austintown in August on a flat and fast course. Locals keep using Mill Creek Park, Austintown park, Wick Park, and Churchill Park for intervals, trail days, and easy Z2. Winter changes the feel, not the habit, with more paved-trail miles, car-free East Cohasset Hike and Bike Trail time, and It's Leg Day 5K in November.
