2005 RUNOHIO Grand Prix

• Wrap Up
  The 2005 RUNOHIO Grand Prix was a series of races chosen by runners and the staff of RUNOHIO to be part of this statewide Grand Prix. Criteria used in determining the final Grand Prix races were 1) Runners ranking from RUNOHIO questionnaire interfaced with 2) Race Organization; 3) Quality of the race field, 4) Geographical location of race; 5) Date of the race; 6) Size of the race. RUNOHIO has also tried to have only one race on any given weekend and not pick holiday races. However, due to a few races changing their dates, the Grand Prix does now have a few dates with multiple races.
