# Event Details

- **Event Name**: ORRRC Wingman 10k
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 25 Jul, 2026 at 08:00 am
- **Event Description**: Welcome to a race presented by the Ohio River Road Runners Club!
If you're not familiar with the Ohio River Road Runners Club, we're a 100% all-volunteer 501(c)(3) Ohio Non-Profit club dedicated to promoting running and supporting the local running community in and around Dayton, Ohio. We are one of the largest (and we think BEST) clubs in the nation.

This is one of our "small races", meaning it is free for ORRRC members, free for anyone 14 and under, and only $10 for everyone else.  If you're not a member, you'll have the option to join when you register - for only $35 per year, you get 20+ races from 1 mile to half marathon distances, on roads and trails, included!

What can you expect from an ORRRC "small race"?  A great team of volunteers, most of whom are runners, committed to providing a high-quality event with well-designed courses and support for runners and walkers of all abilities.  There won't be shirts or finisher medals, but for $10, you'll get a chip-timed finish (from our all-volunteer timers!), refreshments, maybe a small age group award depending on your finish, and a chance to challenge yourself or meet others in the Dayton running community.  We hope you'll join us and have some fun!

Why The WingMan 10k?
On 21 July 2008, our nation lost six of its military heroes in a B-52 crash off the coast of Guam.  One of those heroes was my best friend, Joshua Shepherd, who I called my “WingMan” and who commissioned with me just a few years earlier.  At his funeral, several of his friends committed to completing the Air Force Marathon the next year in his honor, and from then forward, every year I have tried to honor his memory by both doing something positive and by running a race on the anniversary week of his passing.  In 2014 I combined those ideas and became the race director for a new ORRRC race — the WingMan 10K — one that I hope will honor him and the values he taught me:  be a friend to everyone, chase your goals, and never leave someone behind.  I hope that you will join us and bring a friend to our race to remember a great father, brother, son, and most of all a great friend, as well as all of those who have given their lives serving our great nation!  — Eddie Weaver

Race Concept
The WingMan 10K is all about meeting fellow runners and teamwork!  Therefore, we have a unique race structure to encourage you to meet others and cheer them on as your team works to beat the other teams!

TEAMS – Each runner will be randomly assigned one of six teams (yellow, green, blue, orange, red, or purple) and each walker will be assigned one of two teams (black or gray), and given a wrist-band of that color.  Team assignments will be randomized to make sure the numbers-per-team are approximately even.

WORRIED ABOUT NOT BEING COMPETITIVE? – That’s ok! We have non-competitive black and gray color-teams for you so that you can just take part (walking or running) in the event without the fear of “bringing a team down” (you wouldn’t do that anyway – this race is about building each other up!). We’d rather have you at our event than have you stressed!
