Race Information
The Sweaty Pig is a hybrid event featuring both in-person and virtual race options to support Unlimited Play and its mission to build inclusive playgrounds where children of all abilities can play side by side. Participants can choose a 5K or 1 Mile Fun Run in person or complete a 1 Mile, 5K, or 10K virtually. Virtual runners select their own course and start time and complete their race anywhere within the race window, with official results posted on a set day and instructions emailed during race week. Children ages 5 and under can join the free Little Piggy 50 Yard Dash and receive a soft plastic pig nose and a youth T-shirt with registration. Every registration directly supports Unlimited Play and helps create inclusive spaces where families can enjoy the freedom of play together.
