Event Details:

The Stinger 5K is a unique, once-a-year running event held on the grounds of the 180th Fighter Wing at the Eugene F. Kranz Toledo Express Airport in Swanton, Ohio — just a short drive from Toledo. It’s not your typical road race: the course runs past fighter-jet parking pads and along the “Stinger” tarmac, beginning and ending at the on-base 9/11 memorial.

Whether you’re a competitive runner, a casual walker, or looking for a fun family outing — the Stinger 5K is built for all ages (open to ages 6 and up) and all levels.

Be sure to stick around after the race concludes for a truly memorable experience as the 180th will conduct F-16 flights!
