What's better than running by yourself? Running with a bunch of crazy fun people, that's what! Spend your Saturday morning running or walking along the beautiful Tennessee River, with a bunch of the funnest runners you've ever met.
Please read ALL information before signing up so you know what you're getting yourself into! This is NOT a typical race!
What started out as a casual group run with paper plate medals has turned into a perennial event that has been going on for more than a decade.
The course is mostly flat, some small inclines/declines, on a paved path that meanders by the Tennessee River, behind the campus of Chattanooga State to the Chickamauga Dam, with restrooms with toilets that flush.
Yep, you read that right, toilets that flush and sinks with running water and soap in heated buildings. Is this a runner's dream or what?
You will pass the start/finish/aid station area multiple times throughout the race. This means you're welcome to leave a drop bag to access your own personal goodies and you can shed layers as you warm up. This is also a good place to reapply sunscreen, address any potential issues such as blisters, and eat and drink to your heart's content! This means you're never alone, everyone can cheer each other on, and it's much more about camaraderie than competition.
All races are super low-key and non-competitive; we'd prefer to race you vs. you, not you vs. anyone else. Our races are more like large group runs than typical road races. If you want a competitive, mainstream race, there are tons to choose from. That's just not who we are. If you are a slower runner, a walker, a first-timer, or someone who is intimidated by regular races, we have a welcoming atmosphere focused on having fun and reaching your goals. You'll have a hard time finding a more supportive atmosphere than at an Awesomesauce Events race!
There is a time limit of five hours for all distances.
Your registration fee includes:
- entry into the race distance of your choosing
- online results
- race swag will be a winter - or summer - hat, along with our usual "bonus swag"
- As you may have heard, our medal company has closed. We're going back to the oversized coffee mug medal, since that's what y'all said you wanted us to keep around!
- The most epic aid station setup you've ever seen including Gatorade, water, Gu, fruit, candy, cookies, chips, pickles and pickle juice, and tons of other goodies.
