Event Description

Join us on May 4, 2024, for what we hope will become a Columbus Classic. The Columbus Botanical Gardens Dogwood 5k and Spring Mile. We will have a 5k and 1 mile run that winds through the trails around Lake Heath and of course our very own trails at the Columbus Botanical Gardens. Run or walk this scenic 5k and mile and leave with a not only a sense of accomplishment, but a unique award which keeps with the theme of the CBG.

As it happens, this is the 25th anniversary of the Columbus Botanical Gardens. so this is a very special year to run. Each year we will change the theme of the event. This year (2024) is the year of the Dogwood.
