Greensboro Distilling Road Bootlegger 2018

About

Race the Bar and The Trivium Greensboro Race Series will once again have our very unique Road Bootlegger in 2018.  Does the summer heat have you down?  Need to wait for the sun to go down to get your run in?  We have the perfect race for you!

Join us at the Greensboro Distilling Co and Boxcar Arcade and Bar for a nighttime run through downtown Greensboro, live prohibition-era jazz, and cocktails made of grain-to-glass handcrafted spirits.

This event will take place on very smooth, well lit streets around Greensboro.  We still require that all athletes have some form of light on them at all times!
