Pickerington Violet Festival 5K Dash & Kids Fun Run

Join the Pickerington Violet Festival for the Annual Diley Ridge 5K Dash and Kids Fun Run!  

This event is a 5k run that winds its way through the Pickerington High School North XC course. The 5k course is an OHSAA certified 5,000m course with varied terrain through woods and practice fields. There is very little elevation change on the course. Over 1200m of the course is run through wooded terrain. 

The Central Ohio Regional Cross Country Championship is run on the Pickerington North XC course. The start and finish area is located within 100m of each other for a spectator-friendly viewing of the race. The run includes a Kids’ Fun Run in advance of the 5k event, so be sure to bring the whole family!
