New for 2026 - FAMILY & FRIENDS DISCOUNT!

We know the race is more fun when others are involved, and we want to help out if you're bringing the whole family or a bunch of friends. Anyone who registers 3 or more people within the same transaction, will automatically receive a $5.00 discount per participant. All registrations must occur in the same transaction to apply. This works for family, friends, co-workers, or even strangers if you're willing to register in one transaction!

Want to save even more money? If you opt out of a t-shirt during your registration, you can further your discount. Just select "No Shirt" when your registration takes you to the shirt selection screen. (This option only applies through 3/5/26)

All entries before 2/1/26 will receive a complimentary collectors shot glass with their registration. All entries before 3/5/26 will receive a t-shirt with registration.

NOT drinking beer or root-beer? Register for the "Non-Competitor" event. If you wish to skip the drinking option we will still get your finishing time, but we'll remove you from the competitive results of the event and you will be placed in the 'non-competitive' division. You will run the course but you will not be required to drink at the stops.

Packet Pickup and final race registration available at Can't Stop Running Co: Monday 3/16/26 10am-7pm or at the race in Piqua 5-6:30pm on 3/17
