An annual event returns to the grounds of Adena Mansion and Gardens with “Kill the Hill,” a race that features a killer hill. Participants can choose between a 5K run/walk, a 10-mile run.

Both races begin and end at the Adena Visitor’s Center. Runners first descend Adena’s landmark hill, then follow a course that winds through Yaples Orchard and Yoctangee Park before return up the hill to finish.

Contributions are tax-deductible and all proceeds support the operation of Adena Mansion and Gardens. Prizes will be awarded to the top 3 winners in the Men’s and Women’s Divisions. Door prizes will be available to all participants.

For more information, please call (740) 772-1500, e-mail info@adenamansion.com, or visit  www.adenamansion.com.

Every year, we challenge runners and walkers to “Kill the Hill!” The event involves two races to appeal to athletes at all levels: a 5K run/walk and a 10-mile run.
