25th Annual Ghost N Goblin 5k Starting Line Countdown

ORRRC Stuff

Welcome to the ORRRC!

ORRRC logo

The Ohio River Road Runners Club is dedicated to promoting running and supporting the local running community in and around Dayton, Ohio and the Miami Valley.  Founded in 1966, we are a 100% all-volunteer 501(c)(3) Ohio Non-Profit club, a member of the national RRCA, and, with roughly 1500 individual members from 900 member households, we are one of the largest (and we think BEST) clubs in the nation.  We support the community by offering a full schedule of quality running events (40+ per year), training groups, and educational seminars.

We are known for our inexpensive, high-quality running events - most of which are only $3 for members ($9 for non-members).  Many of our events are part of an extended series - like the Team Series, the Trail Series (Dirt Dawgs), and Grand Prix Series (which promotes competition and volunteerism throughout the year).  We also hold four major events throughout the year. These events have  a total of over 11,000 participants.

Race Information

For most club sponsored events, race fees are $3 for members and $9 for non-members.  Seniors (60 and over) are $2 for members, $5 for non-members.  Youths age 15 – 19 are $2.00.  Youths 14 and under are free.  Occasionally an event will be noted as a Fun Run.  A fun run will have no awards or finishers medals.  The entry fee for a fun run will be $2 for both members and non-members.

Exceptions to these fees are ORRRC Marathon & Half Marathon, Lou Cox Memorial Run, Carol Wolff Women's Race, 50Ks, Ghost-n-Goblins, Turkey Trot and Splash & Dashs.  Fees will be determined by the race directors and noted on the web page and registration forms. 

Awards will be trophies, plaques, and/or medals/ribbons. They are awarded in the following age groups for men and women:  9 and under (non-competitive, all finishers are winners) 10-14, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80 & up.

Club Officers and Trustees

Board of Trustees members serve one year terms.  New boards are placed into effect at the Annual Meeting in September.

The club always needs dedicated volunteers to serve as trustees.  If you are an ORRRC member and want to contribute as a trustee, then please contact a sitting board member.  Trustees meet once per month on the second Thursday at 7:00pm (see calendar for specifics).

All Board meetings are open to all ORRRC members...after all it is your club. If you have an item to bring before the board, please notify an officer a few days beforehand, so that it can be added to the meeting agenda.
