About the race

Go Bucks and Go Blue during this 10th annual event in downtown Sandusky. There isn’t a better way to start the morning of the Ohio State/Michigan game day than “Dotting the i” or “Blocking the M.” And you can do both in this one-of-a-kind event. There is no other city with a unique street grid like Sandusky's to complete this kind of course. The “Dot the i” course is approximately 5 miles and the “Block the M” course is approximately 4 miles.  (Note: The "Dot the i" finish line will close at 10:30 a.m. Any participants unable to finish the course within that time are recommended to complete the Big O course instead) The OH-IO Two-person relay. Split the Script Ohio course with one other person and each of you complete about 2.5 miles of the course.  The Big O, a one-mile walk option to complete just the O in Ohio. Registered Participants (By November 12, 2026) receive long-sleeved shirts and are to use sidewalks and obey all traffic laws during the event. PLACE: Monroe Street at Cameo Pizza and Central Park COURSE: Ohio State fans will start at Cameo Pizza and run/walk the sidewalks of Sandusky completing Script Ohio (approx. 5 miles) and “Dot the i” at the finish. Michigan fans will start and finish at Cameo Pizza and run/walk the sidewalks of Sandusky completing the Block M (approx. 4 miles).  DATE: Saturday, November 28, 2026 (Date subject to change if The Game is scheduled for a different weekend than tradition) TIME: Race Day starting at 8 a.m., Pre-Race Day Packet Pick-Up: TBD ENTRY FEE:  EARLY SIGN-UP SPECIAL THROUGH 2/28- $25.00! $35.00 pre-registration (received no later than November 12, 2026) Race-day registration limited to availability of shirts.
