Events Hog Jog 5K
Posted By Priscilla Tsai on Fri, Aug 28, 2009 at 10:12 AM
Charlotte's 2nd Annual Hog Jog 5K is coming up on Saturday, September 12.
As you race, inhale the scents of BBQ as your run past the competitive barbecue teams vying to win a trip to the national "Memphis in May" BBQ competition.
The race runs through uptown and finishes with live entertainment and a Bloody Mary contest at the finish line as part of the Blues, Brews, and BBQ street festival in Charlotte's Center City.
In addition to the 5K race, they will have a “Squeel Chair” division and “Piglet Fun Run.”
The race starts bright and early at 8 am.
It costs $25 to register online prior to the event. You can register here. If you register the day of the event, the price goes up to $30. (If you are wondering why the registration price has gone up a bit, it's because you'll be receiving a performance tee!)
