Rotary Lake 5k Trail Walk/Run & Kids Fun Run

This event on March 28, 2026 in Barnesville, Ohio includes a 5k trail run, a 5k walk, and a separate kids fun run. The 5k course runs through the park and around the lake, with varied terrain. Approximately half the route is paved; the other half follows natural trail and crushed limestone with very little rocks or roots. Trail shoes are not required, though some participants choose them after several days of rain.

Race-day provisions include food and beverages such as hot dogs, pizza, hot chocolate, and homemade cookies. Awards are offered for the run and the walk, with over 100 handcrafted Nature Trophies across multiple categories and divisions. Apparel is available for early registrants: the first 100 entrants may receive a hooded sweatshirt for an additional $5 or a long-sleeved T-shirt. Additional shirts may be reordered but sizes and styles are not guaranteed and are distributed first come, first served.

Location details list the event at 130 Fair Street, Barnesville, OH 43713. The program includes separate entries for adults and youth events and a dedicated kids fun run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
