The Queen City 5K helps provide support for kids here in the Greater Cincinnati Area. Last year marked our 7th 5K fundraiser race, which is the beginning of another financial stream to better our kids for the future and to be the educational bridge for their futures. We are excited to bring this race to our weekend!
Our sponsors, partners, walkers and runners will continue to help provide programs, resources and scholarships for our grade school kids up to our seniors on their way to college.

Partnership with Vibe Cincinnati:

This year the 5k will be a part of Vibe Cincinnati's Music Fest Weekend. And for this reason we wanted to have a race downtown so that all of our new out of town runners can walk to the race.  There will be entertainment during and after the race to fit the mold of a Vibe Cincinnati weekend.  Our goal is to make this a great mixer of full of fun, entertainment and fitness.
