2023 marks the 12th year of OUR incredible partnership with Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Since that time, we have raised more than $12 million to support life-saving research and care with the help of dedicated sponsors and peer-to-peer fundraisers known as our Marathon Children’s Champions.
By participating in the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Columbus Marathon and ½ Marathon weekend, you have the opportunity to help sick kids get better. We also encourage our athletes to participate in our race as one of our Children’s Champions, a team of dedicated athletes raising money for Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Your fundraising efforts will help provide the highest quality of care to every patient at Nationwide Children's, regardless of their family's ability to pay. Become a Children's Champion today and create your personal fundraising page! As a Children's Champion you will gain access to online fundraising tools, exclusive apparel, private event day accommodations, and more! Learn more HERE!
Since 1980, OUR race has helped raise millions of dollars for charity. In addition to our namesake charitable partnership with Nationwide Children’s Hospital, we have helped others over the years, and many athletes organize their own fundraising efforts on behalf of a myriad of non-profit organizations.
