About the Event

The Distillery Dash is the first in a three part XC series collaborating with local distilleries, breweries and wineries! Sign up early for the lowest prices, and Run for Bourbon!

The Distillery Dash will feature 2.5k, 5k and 10k cross-country race options at beautiful Masterson Station Park. All participants will receive a race t-shirt, finisher's award, and a bourbon tasting drink ticket.

Participants under 21 will receive all portions of the finisher award except for the tasting tickets.

The afterparty will run until 10:00 p.m., so hang around for music, bourbon tastings, drink sales, food trucks, and a great time! Register for all three races in the series for a special finisher's award at the end of the series!

The 2.5k & 5k will be open to walkers, but we will enforce a cutoff pace of 16 minutes/mile for the 10k due to concerns with sunset.

About Lexington

Learn more about the host city, Lexington.

Lexington is the second largest city in Kentucky, located in the Bluegrass Region. Known as the Horse Capital of the World, Lexington has traditionally been dominated by the horse industry and is also heavily influenced by the University of Kentucky, the state's flagship university and the largest employer in the city. The horse industry has greatly influenced Lexington's culture and scenic beauty; the University of Kentucky and Transylvania University contribute to a college town atmosphere with a richer and more diverse culture than some might expect from its size and location. Lexington's compact central downtown district is surrounded by historic neighborhoods. Lexington is in the heart of the Bluegrass region of Kentucky and is still home to hundreds of horse farms.
