The Columbus Marathon & 1/2 Marathon, held in Columbus, Ohio each October, features a marathon, half marathon, Jesse Owens 5K, 1 Mile race, Kids Run, and a Gold Medal Challenge. The main courses are fast, making the weekend suitable for runners aiming for a personal best, those preferring a shorter distance, or families participating with children. Nationwide Children's Hospital is the title beneficiary, a partnership over ten years old. Over $15 million has been raised for the hospital, with Children's Champions athletes contributing millions through their fundraising efforts.
