SFTC Monthly Fun Run - Cinco de Mayo Taco Run
About this race
Let’s combine two of our greatest talents—running and eating!
Join us on Tuesday, May 5th for a Cinco de Mayo celebration at Warriors' Path State Park where we’ll answer the age-old question: Who is the fastest taco-powered runner in the Tri-Cities?
The challenge is a grueling (okay, not really) 2.5(ish) miles—four loops around Duck Island. Sounds easy, right? Not so fast… at the start of each loop, you must eat a taco. Yes, FOUR tacos. Back-to-back-to-back-to-back.
This is where strategy comes in:
- Do you pace your tacos?
- Do you sprint and risk a mid-run regret?
- Do you question your life choices by loop three?
There’s only one way to find out.
Come test your speed, your stomach, and your dignity. Whether you’re chasing the title or just showing up for tacos and laughs, this is one fiesta you definitely don’t want to miss!
