Delphos Canal Days 5K Run/Walk 2026

The Delphos Canal Days 5K Run/Walk begins and ends on Second Street in front of the firehouse in Delphos, Ohio. This 3.1-mile road race and walk is part of the town’s Canal Days celebration. It features a main 5K, a Student & XC Alumni 5K, and a low-cost Fun Run for those seeking a shorter distance. The course covers flat, paved city streets and Stadium Park, following the historic Miami-Erie Canal. Canal facts are posted along the route, integrating local history into the event. Following the finish, participants receive refreshments. Age-group winners are awarded Official Canal Days 5K mugs, and the top male and female finishers receive first-place awards. The event also links to the broader festival, including the Under The Big Top parade later that afternoon.
