Event Description

Thanksgiving is a day for Turkey Trots, lots of homecooked food, family, and football. And maybe a nap. And then comes Friday... leftovers galore. You'll be eating turkey and mashed potatoes in various forms for days! 

As runners, we all have plenty of clothing and shoes that are "leftover" from prior seasons or no longer see the wear we thought they would. 

And lastly, as race directors (okay, maybe that's just us!) we always have extra shirts and medals when a race is completed. We've accumulated a lot of "leftover" swag over the years and we thought we might do something fun before we make a donation to help those in need. So we came up with the Leftover Run and we're asking for your help.

The Leftover Run?

Yes! The concept is pretty basic: we have leftover race numbers, race shirts, and medals from events over the past few years. You pay $15 to participate in the Leftover Run, and when you arrive you'll get your choice of a race shirt in your preferred size. When you finish, you'll get your choice of a medal. Some of these medals, you've seen before. Maybe a few that you haven't, too.

You said you can use my help, how does that work?

The beneficiary of our event is Goodwill Columbus. We'll be donating some of the extra shirts after the Leftover Run to this great local organization. In addition to the donation of the extra race shirts, we're asking you to help make a great donation to Goodwill Columbus by bringing any donatable clothing to the event that we'll then include with the donation to help those in need. We also support Goodwill Columbus via the event's DONATE page, you can donate during your event registration or separately using the button at the top of the page.
