About
For a second year we will kick off the Race the Bar season with our 5K at Pig Pounders Brewery. In 2015 the event was won by Billy Chorey in 17:16 for the men and Crystal Taylor in 21:22 for the women. Who will claim the early lead in the 2016 series?
We will be adding a Corporate/Club category to registration. Help your club or place of business take home the coveted Race the Bar Trophy in 2016.
While there will be a few new things in 2016 the things that make this series great will all be returning. Finishers beers, awesome prizes, our finishers glass collection, and great music. You will not want to miss race #1!
