KILL THE HILL
5K Run/Walk & 10 Mile Run
Saturday, March 28, 2020
The annual Kill the Hill races return to the grounds of Adena Mansion & Gardens on Saturday, March 28, 2020.
The Kill the Hill races feature a killer hill on Adena's entrance driveway.
The event includes two races to challenge athletes at all levels: a 5K run/walk and a 10 mile run!
All courses begin and end at the Visitors Center of Adena Mansion & Gardens. Runners first descend Adena's landmark hill, then follow a course that winds through Yaples Orchard and Yoctangee Park before returning
up the hill to the finish line.
All proceeds from the race will support the operation of Adena Mansion & Gardens.

Adena Mansion & Gardens
Adena was the 2000-acre estate of Thomas Worthington (1773-1827), sixth governor of Ohio and one of the state's first United States Senators. The mansion house, completed in 1806-1807, has been restored to look much as it did when the Worthington family lived there, including many original Worthington family furnishings.
The house is one of only three houses designed by Benjamin Henry Latrobe still standing in the country.
Situated on the 300 remaining acres of the original home place are five outbuildings and formal gardens. The gardens have undergone major renovation. Visitors may stroll through three terraces of flowers and vegetables, as well as the shrubs and trees in the grove. Looking east from the north lawn of the mansion, one can see across the Scioto River Valley to the Logan Range. This view was the inspiration for the Great Seal of the State of Ohio.
