About this race
The John Glenn International Runway 5K is a Sunday 5K in Columbus, Ohio, run on the north runway of John Glenn International Airport. The setting is the whole point: instead of city streets or park paths, runners get a flat airport runway under their feet, with the terminal close enough that they can wave to travelers as they pass.
The course is straightforward, and one participant called it perfectly flat and easy for a personal best. More than a thousand runners show up, making it feel like a community race rather than a novelty run. A repeat participant said the event has been held every year since it started and praised its organization, giving both the course and race management top marks.
