This year introduces a new twist: The Team Challenge! Form alliances with friends or colleagues to compete in this exciting team-based race.

Registration is simple but early birds have an advantage. Secure your spot for just $15 by April 20th at midnight; after that, prices rise to $20 per participant. Students can take part in this fun event with their ID for only $15, making it accessible and affordable for all.
What’s more, the first 100 runners crossing the finish line will receive a commemorative tech tee—a perfect keepsake of your running adventure through the scenic industrial park. These t-shirts come in various sizes, so grab yours quickly to ensure you get one!
Post-race festivities continue with food trucks offering delicious eats and cold beverages, along with raffle prizes for those who stay to celebrate their achievements. Enjoy a post-run celebration at Seven Saws Brewing Company, where the atmosphere is lively and the beer is refreshing.
Join us this July 26th as we honor Fred Warren’s legacy while embracing new traditions in the vibrant community of Holden.
