Dayton, Ohio- The annual Dragons 5K presented by Orthopedic Associates of SW Ohio is taking place this Saturday, July 21, at 8 a.m. at Fifth Third Field. The event began in 2011 and has become a local tradition as one of the larger races in the Miami Valley region.
Each individual who registers for the event will receive a $75 value race bag. All participants will receive four (4) lawn tickets to a Dragons game, official Dragons 5K shirt, a Dragons hat, and entry to the post-race party inside the stadium for themselves and their supporters. The cost is $30 for adults and $15 for youth age 17 and under.

The race will begin at 8:00 a.m. and participants may choose to run or walk the course. Baby strollers are also permitted. The course will move through downtown Dayton and end back at the ballpark for a post-race party.

The post-race fun includes fruit and water for participants, a kid's obstacle course, face painters, inflatable games, an appearance by Heater and Gem, health and wellness booths, and more activities for the whole family.
There will be an awards ceremony at 9:30 a.m. where the top three male and female overall finishers will receive a specially-engraved baseball bat.
