The team at Four Peaks Brewing Company is bringing back the fun!
The Four Peaks Kilt Chaser is one of the most unique and fun events you'll ever participate in!
Modeled after the Skirt Chaser fun runs of yore,
the Kilt Chase is a race with a few twists. Twist one: Instead of all racers starting at the same time,
the ladies get a three minute head start. Twist two: All runners - boys and girls - race while wearing kilts.*
Can the girls outrun the boys? And more importantly, is a kilt really the most effective clothing for a 5K run?
Only one way to find out.
Please note - this is a trail run.
The course consists of uneven paths, hills, and desert terrain.
Please take proper precautions when preparing for this event.
This event is limited to 300 participants.
*Join the fun and race in a kilt! If you need one, you can purchase one during registration.
You don’t need to purchase one, you can bring or make your own too.
Kilts are not required to participate in this event.

Charity Partner
This year’s Kilt Chaser charity partner is Four Peaks For Teachers, a program that raises funds for and distributes school supplies to teachers in Arizona, Nevada, and New Mexico. In many school districts across the country, teachers receive little to no funding for classroom essentials before the start of each school year; in fact, 94 percent of public school teachers in the U.S. pay for supplies for their classrooms with money from their own pockets. Since 2011, Four Peaks For Teachers has provided educators in the Southwest with boxes full of school supplies to alleviate some of the financial burden they face.

Kilt Decorating Party
Little-known fact: The colors and patterns on a kilt can communicate a number of things. There are designs for families and clans; states and provinces; schools and universities; sporting activities, and more. In short: Your kilt says a lot about you.
