The Rikki-Lynn Warrior Foundation 5k Walk & Run
The Rikki-Lynn Warrior Foundation 5k Walk & Run is a community 5K in Springfield, Ohio, held in May at Roosevelt Middle School and the Springfield High School grounds. This is the foundation’s first official event, welcoming runners and walkers of all ages. Registration is $35 and includes a race bib, Warrior bag, and event shirt; shirts are guaranteed for those who register before the stated cutoff. The route begins at Roosevelt Middle School, proceeds through the high school grounds, and incorporates N. High School Pl and S. Kensington Pl near 721 E. Home Rd. The race commemorates Rikki-Lynn’s life and her demonstrated strength. Proceeds support future community events, foundation initiatives, and a scholarship for a student-athlete. Water stations are positioned along the route. The finish area features food trucks, a DJ, and a brief awards ceremony following the last finisher.
