Burn Your Half Off, An Awesomesauce Event presented by Run Chattanooga

Event Overview

It's Chattanooga's original July Riverpark race, more than 10 years running!

Available Distances

• Options: 5K, 10K, and half marathon.

Aid Stations

• Supplies: Unlimited ice, Gatorade, water, salty snacks, sugary snacks, fruit (bananas, oranges, and watermelon), banana smoothies!
• Extras: Sunscreen, Vaseline (the sweat chafe is REAL), and more for your safety.

Important Information

• Parking: Due to limited parking and space, prices will increase as the race fills up.
• Facilities: Toilets that flush and sinks with running water and soap. Bougie!
• Camaraderie: This event is about fun, not competition. Everyone receives a finisher skull medal.
• Last Place: The coveted Sloth Society medal goes to the last finisher.

Start/Finish Area

You will come back to the start/finish/super aid station area multiple times throughout the race. This means you're welcome to leave a drop bag for personal goodies and shed layers as you warm up. This is also a good place to reapply sunscreen and address any potential issues such as blisters.

Race Philosophy

Our races are super low-key and non-competitive: we prefer to race you vs. you, not you vs. anyone else. There is a 4-hour time limit for all distances. If you’re close to finishing past the time limit, we’ll stick around to ensure you get a finish time and a medal.

Registration Details

Your registration fee includes:

• Entry: Race distance of your choosing.
• Swag: A beach/pool/lake/shower towel, finisher medal for all distances, and our epic aid station, along with post-race snacks.

Additional Merchandise

A shirt is NOT our standard swag. We give you a plush, bright towel, because we don’t do ANYTHING in a conventional manner. We will have shirts, tank tops, and other swag available for purchase on site.

Registration Policy

As with any other race, registration fees and add-on fees are final and non-refundable. By registering, you accept this policy, which is standard in the industry. The races will go on rain, snow (ha!), or shine, but may be delayed or canceled due to lightning or unsafe conditions.
