The Gary Smith Worthington Classic was formed for and by people that love, support, admire, and want to thank the late Gary Smith for his devoted and dedicated years as a coach and teacher for the Worthington School District. This event is a fantastic and fun way to show the love to this man and to sponsor scholarships to Thomas Worthington students and donations to children’s charities. The race, started by former Cardinal athletes and their families, is sponsored by the City of Worthington and the Gary Smith Race Committee, in conjunction with the Healthy Worthington Coalition.
