The Westerville Symphony Orchestra presents the first Beethoven 5k Run/Walk and 1 Mile Walk on Saturday, July 30, 2016 at 8am at the Westerville Sports Complex.

The Beethoven 5k Run/Walk is a unique 5k road race that challenges participants to "outrun the Maestro" as they move along a beautiful, scenic course through Westerville, OH. The race kicks off with the famous opening notes of Beethoven's 5th Symphony, which runners will enjoy as they run throughout the course.

All runners who complete the race before the Symphony concludes (approximately 32 minutes) will receive a voucher for one FREE ticket to an upcoming Westerville Symphony Masterworks concert of their choice.

Funds raised from this event will support the Westerville Symphony and the Columbus Speech & Hearing Center. Specifically, these funds will support music education efforts within the City of Westerville and the Columbus Speech & Hearing Center's 'Hear for Life' program which educates young people about the dangers of exposure to loud sounds.
