Shepherd’s Corner Ecology Center brings people together to reconnect, repair, and restore. Proceeds will benefit land-based experiences in spirituality, education, art, and restoration that heal our relationship with Earth and one another. Through environmental education, food pantry gardens, and forest and wetland restoration, we take action to repair harm and renew community. With the support of folks like you, Shepherd’s Corner has donated 53,831 pounds of fresh, naturally grown produce over the last 18 years. Your steps in this 5K help restore the land, nourish neighbors, and ensure this healing work continues for generations.
We are asking 5K participants to bring shelf stable food items to add to our food pantry donation box!
We’re a part of the RUNColumbus 2026 Race Series. You can check out the other races here!
For twenty years the Shepherd’s Corner 5K has been a fun community driven event for all ages of runners and walkers. This race is a FUN run/walk.
Prizes will be awarded to the first four finishers without regard to age or gender. Additional prizes will be awarded through a drawing. Must be present at drawing to receive prizes.
NEW!: This year we will have an untimed 1K option for those who want to participate but would prefer a shorter distance.
Cost:
$30 for adults (13 years and up)
$15 for those 12 years and under
