Cincinnati’s Triple Crown Running Series begins with the GO OTR 5K
Cincinnati Triple Crown Running Series
Three neighborhood running races have joined together to create a series event. The Go OTR 5K, Hyde Park Blast, and Downtown Dash came together due to their existing synergy to create the Triple Crown running series. The three events are all community races followed by a lively block parties. This running series will allow for competitive amateurs in the region to challenge themselves over the three races in an effort to win cash awards as well as encourage the casual runner to receive recognition for participation in each race.
The combined times for the three races will determine the top three male and three female runners to be crowned the Cincinnati Triple Crown champions. First place will be awarded with $250, followed by $100 and $50 for second and third place. (Both male and female divisions). All participants in the three races will be awarded with a gift from Coffee Emporium, the event sponsor.
Participants need not take any additional action aside from registering and running each race. The Triple Crown was created to showcase these three wonderful events. The Go OTR 5K is quickly approaching on May 21st, followed by the Hyde Park Blast on June 25th, and lastly the Cincinnati Triple Crown will be handed out following the Downtown Dash on Friday August 5th..
