The Tortoise and the Hare 6 miler will start at Vine Street Brewing – take you on a 6 mile “unsanctioned” road loop finishing back at Vine Street Brewing for an awesome afterparty! But this event also has a fun twist!
What’s the twist? The run will be split into two groups – the Tortoise Group and the Hare Group:
Tortoise Group – running an average pace of 8:30 to 15:00+ (all paces are welcome)
Hare Group – running an average pace of sub 5:00 to 8:29.
The Tortoise Group will start at 7pm sharp and will work to stay in front of the Hares. The Hare Group will start 20 minutes later at 7:20pm working to catch the Tortoise Group. The two groups will overlap at the finish for some big time fun!
Course to be announced week of the event but will be 6 to 6.4 miles – not an officially measured 10k so we are calling it a 6+ miler!
This event will also be raising funds for MS Run the US – part of proceeds and all donations will go to this amazing organization dedicated to MS research and aid!
Registration includes:
– Race T-shirt
– (1) Post race Vine Street Brewing BEER (or other Bev)
– Awesome afterparty with the best community

Great evening run with highlights from Hospital Hill and KC Half, as well as a few others. Great Tshirt, no chip timing and no medal. I know this is a local club running it but honestly the event was so spectacularly put together that I wished there’d been a medal, even if I had to pay more for it. The weather was punishing with high gusts and horrible air quality. When the rain drops finally came it was mud falling from the sky. The course ran fast though, all things considered and it was a great mix of hills to keep things fresh. Raffle at the end and free beverages were included with the cost of admission. Absolutely a great course.
