Welcome to the 12th annual Catch-A-Pig (CAP) 5K – this is a great opportunity to have a unique race experience AND support The Boys & Girls Club of Harford County!
The race is an out-and-back along the MA & PA Trail. 1K Bacon Stroll walkers are invited to join in the fun!
The kicker: THIS IS A CHASE! We’ll have young runners dressed in pink pig shirts (a.k.a. "the piglets"). They will have a three minutes head start on the adult runners. Those who pass at least one of the piglets before crossing the finish line get their name into a special drawing for prizes. BUT LOOK OUT! There are also a few BIG, BAD WOLVES who will get a late (seven minute) jump on you. If they all pass you, you'll lose the opportunity for the special drawing
All proceeds after costs will go to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Harford and Cecil Counties.
IF YOU ARE UNDER 13 AND WANT TO BE ONE OF OUR PIGLETS: We are accepting runners under the age of 13 to take off first. These young ones get a FREE pig t-shirt.
Bring your pup! Sign him/her up to join you (sign them up under the dog option). Dogs must be registered (just $10) and on a leash.

Participants will learn
~ with coach-led demonstrations
~ through skill sessions
~ on the bike games
~ Rides on grass, pavement (SRT), and trails.
What To Bring:
~We highly recommend a mountain bike or a hybrid bike for Mountain Bike Camp.
~ Ideally, the bike should have shifting gears, *knobby tires (no slick or bald tires), well-fitted, and in great working condition.
*Please take your bike to a bike shop for a tune up before camp begins: a bike that breaks on the trail can be a real bummer. Make sure the brakes work, the chain is not rusty or stiff, the tires are in good condition (no dry-rot) and all the nuts and bolts are secure.
~A well-fitted helmet in great condition. No cracks or dents- protect those noggins.
~A water bottle (or two) or a hydration pack
~Closed-toe, secure shoes. No sandals, flip-flops-or crocs.
~Snacks (none sharing). Nutritious, skip the high sugar. The rider is the engine, proper nutrition before and during camp will make for a better experience.
~Personal medicine if needed: Inhalers, Epipens..etc.
For Adventure Bike Camp: most bikes are great. While a mountain bike is ideal, if you have a traditional single-gear bike, we can work with you! Reach out to us [email protected], give us a heads up.
Highly Recommended:
~protective eyewear
~sunscreen & bug/tick repellent
~bike gloves
~padded bike shorts ?TRUST US!
Please reach out to your local bike shop now, to make sure your kiddo has a great camp experience later!
*All bikes should have a tune-up at least once a year.
Doing so saves money, keeps your bike in good condition, can prevent mechanical failures, and offers safety and security while riding your bike.
*Make sure: the brakes work, the tires are NOT dry rotted and have good tread, fill up the tires with air to make sure the inner-tubes are in great working order. ~~*If the tires loose air, that means the bike needs new inner-tubes.
*Make sure the chain is not rusty, it has been properly oiled and moves freely along the gears.
*If your bike has gears, please make sure all the gars can work, and that the chain works well on the gears.
Don't hesitate to take your bike to a bike shop to have them take a look and see how they can help you get your bike in great working order!

On January 23, 1992, Ben Yupcavage and Tim Russell, both Hershey High School athletes, were tragically killed in an automobile accident. In their memory, the Yupcavage and Russell families established the Tim Russell – Ben Yupcavage Memorial Scholarship Fund. Now in its 33rd year, the event which has become known as “Ben & Tim Day”, has maintained this scholarship fund in loving memory of and as a tribute to Ben and Tim.
Tim Russell exemplified the spirit of the sport of running as a leader, an inspiration, and a friend. He was as gracious in winning as he was in defeat. As a person and athlete, he possessed and demonstrated qualities that set an example for others to emulate and follow.
As a freshman, Tim became a key part of and contributor to his Cross Country Team which placed as State AA Runner Up Champions in 1989. For the next two years, Tim held the distinction of being the team’s number one runner and led the team to the State Cross Country Championship Title in 1990.
Ben, known to many as “Yuppy”, was a serious student, musician, and soccer player. Active on and off the soccer field, Ben was an honor roll student and member of the Student Council, the Yearbook and Production staff, and HHS Brass Ensemble. His love for soccer started in the first grade and continued through to varsity soccer at Hershey High where he was a standout player fiercely proud of his team and loyal to his teammates.
Off the field, Ben could be found encouraging his brother on the JV Soccer Team, assisting his little sister’s team and coach in addition to refereeing games for younger township teams. In soccer, as well as academics, Ben set a standard and displayed a passion to be admired by all who knew him.
The Yupcavage and Russell families extend their deepest appreciation to the dedicated organizers and generous sponsors of each year’s event and to countless friends and neighbors who come each year to honor and remember Ben and Tim. It is this dedication and support that enables the scholarships given in their memory to deserving Hershey High School students.

Overall and Age Group awards
While growing up in Mount Holly, New Jersey, Ed Espenshade played catch with his dad, attended Phillies and Sixers games, and dreamed of being an athlete. But soon after he acquired a paper route as a twelfth birthday present, Ed was hit by a car while attempting to cross a road. After blood was drawn during an examination in the emergency room, Ed received shocking news: he had diabetes.
As his path took an unexpected turn, Ed describes how he became more determined than ever to pursue his athletic goals. After an unsuccessful attempt at soccer, Ed eventually found his home as a cross country runner in high school and college. It seemed that Ed was defying all odds as he continued to run hundreds of road races that included four marathons. But everything changed in 2003 when Ed found himself face down on the street during a training run and soon received another stunning diagnosis: he had a rare nonmalignant brain tumor. As he details his continuing journey with two serious health conditions, Ed shines a light on the importance of keeping hope, faith, and perseverance alive in the face of lifes greatest challenges.

The North East Triathlon is an amazing race in a beautiful location. Just minutes from I-95, a Chesapeake Bay time trial swim and well paved country roads along Elk Neck State Forest make this a great race. The course is low traffic, hilly and technical in places, but has plenty of straightaways and beautiful views. The run course is a lightly rolling, out and back course on the shoulder heading south of town. This Chesapeake Bay waterfront town is worth a weekend away, there are plenty of boats, parks, restaurants and roads to explore.
We know you will love this race, watch our race video to learn more.
