Reconnecting Historic Neighborhoods

This 5k and 1 Mile Walk will take you on a journey into the past, so that we can put into context how to reimagine the future for overlooked East Cleveland Neighborhoods. The Blythe Oldfield and College Hill neighborhoods each have their own rich history marked by resilience, pain, strength, community, and hope. Run or walk with us to see these evolving neighborhoods firsthand, and better understand how these places are connected to the broader story of the City of Cleveland.

The race route

Our 5K route will take you through the heart of historic Blythe Oldfield. Full route details can be viewed here.
