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.

Registration is now open for the ORRRC's largest event: The 32nd Annual Turkey Trot in Miamisburg, Ohio.
As always, this event takes place on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday November 25 at 8:00AM. Due to limited venue capacity, this year's 5-mile field will be limited to the first 7000 entries and the 1-mile field will be limited to the first 1000 entries. And shirts are guaranteed to the first 8000 entrants. So please sign up early to guarantee your starting spot and save on the cost of registration!
As we are always striving to improve this event, we've made a few minor changes, including:
- An upgraded shirt featuring steel-gray long sleeve moisture-wicking fabric and a 3-color front print.
- Pumpkin biscotti (cookies) at the post-race party, courtesy of the Sinclair Community College Culinary Arts Program.
- A new pre-race staging area for 5-mile walkers (on Linden between First and Second with overflow into the Cinder Path lot, as necessary).
- Special savings on shoes and apparel for those who register online, courtesy of Runners Plus.
Complete event details (along with links to online registration and entry forms) are available here.
