It's low key. It's like a group run, but with swag. There's cowbells and music and camaraderie and great scenery! You can run, walk, skip, you can do it in sneakers or in sandals or in no shoes at all. We keep our races small on purpose, in order to give you more personalized attention!

Please read ALL information before signing up so you know what you're getting yourself into! This is NOT a typical race!

The course is mostly flat, some small inclines/declines, on a paved path that meanders by the Tennessee River, behind the campus of Chattanooga State to the Chickamauga Dam, with restrooms with toilets that flush and sinks with running water and soap.

You're reading that right! Exactly ZERO port-o-potties at this race. It's almost bougie! Our toilet paper isn't quilted though, so it's really just kind of bougie-adjacent.

You will pass the start/finish/aid station area multiple times throughout the race. This means you're welcome to leave a drop bag to access your own personal goodies and you can shed layers as you warm up. This is also a good place to reapply sunscreen, address any potential issues such as blisters, and eat and drink to your heart's content! This means you're never alone, everyone can cheer each other on, and it's much more about camaraderie than competition.

All races are super low-key and non-competitive; we'd prefer to race you vs. you, not you vs. anyone else. Our races are more like large group runs than typical road races. If you want a competitive, mainstream race, there are tons to choose from. That's just not who we are. If you are a slower runner, a walker, a first-timer, or someone who is intimidated by regular races, we have a welcoming atmosphere focused on having fun and reaching your goals. You'll have a hard time finding a more supportive atmosphere than at an Awesomesauce Events race!

There is a time limit of four hours for all distances. Walkers are welcome! This is a completely judgment free zone, and we're in it to have a good time! Our ONLY award is for LAST place - for the one who perseveres the longest!

Check out some of the medal options! Shirts and other swag from these discontinued races will be available for each participant to choose something as their race swag!
