Lace up for a cherished community tradition at the 34th Annual Picnic Run, set for Saturday, July 25, 2026, in scenic Brookville, OH. This vibrant event, held in conjunction with the Brookville Community Picnic, offers a welcoming atmosphere for all abilities, with both a 3.1-mile (5K) run/walk and a 1-mile fun run. Typical race day conditions in late July feature highs around 86°F and lows around 67°F, with a modest 14% chance of precipitation, making for a warm but often clear morning.

The 5K course promises an engaging tour, winding through picturesque country roads and city streets, offering a refreshing change of scenery and including a single water stop to keep runners hydrated. For those seeking a shorter, family-friendly option, the 1-mile Fun Run is contained entirely within the lush surroundings of Golden Gate Park, where both races begin and end. Packet pickup conveniently takes place at the park from 7:00-7:45 A.M., with the 5K kicking off at 8:00 A.M. and the Fun Run following at approximately 8:45 A.M.

Beyond the challenge of the course, the Picnic Run distinguishes itself with a strong sense of community. All participants are treated to a complimentary breakfast, making for a perfect post-race celebration. Awards are presented to the top three male and female overall finishers in the 5K, as well as to the top three in various age groups, while Fun Run participants receive ribbons, with medals for the top three boys and girls. Join fellow runners and immerse yourself in this enduring Brookville tradition that combines athletic achievement with festive community spirit.
