Event summary

Get ready for a vibrant celebration of pride and community at the Rainbow Run 5K and 100 Meter High Heel Dash on Saturday, June 3rd, 2023, in beautiful Middletown, Butler! This exciting event is not just about running; it’s a colorful fundraiser supporting the 2023 Middletown Pride event scheduled for June 24th. Lace up your sneakers and join us for the Rainbow Run 5K, an inclusive race welcoming both runners and walkers. The scenic route around Smith Park will be filled with fun color bomb stations, ensuring a lively atmosphere for everyone involved.

But the fun doesn't stop there! Unleash your inner diva in the High Heel 100 Meter "Drag" Race — a playful dash where participants strut their stuff in heels that are at least 3 inches high. Whether you choose to participate in one or both events, you're guaranteed a fantastic time. Plus, all participants will receive a special finishers award and have the option to purchase a unique race t-shirt that transforms from plain white to a rainbow of colors by the end of the race!
