The Sweaty Pig is back! The 2024 event will be a hybrid event featuring both an in-person race and virtual race options.
Come get your sweat on for a 5K or 1-Mile Fun Run in support of Unlimited Play, or join us virtually for a 5K or 10K. We also have a free Little Piggy 50 Yard Dash. Your participation will help develop accessible playgrounds so that all children and their caregivers can enjoy the freedom of play, regardless of their abilities.
For this virtual run, you get to choose the race course and start time! Run around your neighborhood, a nearby park or your favorite Unlimited Play playground. All you have to do is complete your run or walk between Friday, June 7 and Sunday, June 9. Then, upload your time to be recognized for this accomplishment with all of our virtual runners! (Virtual results instructions will be emailed on race week)
