Ohio University Founders' Day Virtual 5K Race
The Ohio University Alumni Association challenged students to take part in the Founders' Day Virtual 5K Challenge. Ending on Wednesday, Feb. 18, 2026, Bobcats nationwide had the opportunity to celebrate OHIO's 221 years by helping reach a mileage goal. The total goal mileage was made up of the distance from the Bunch of Grapes Tavern in Boston where Ohio University was chartered to Cutler Hall in Athens, equating 730 miles. Individual 5K submissions could be completed anywhere and were counted toward the combined mileage goal.
