Held the first Sunday in May, the club participates in the Flying Pig Marathon in a couple of ways. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
- Club Fluid Station – For the last 15 years, the Club has a Flying Pig Fluid Station
at mile 22. It is our largest volunteer opportunity of the
year. We need about 40 volunteers. so please volunteer today. Volunteers
receive a free t-shirt courtesy of the pig, free food and drink at the
waterstop, the chance to socialize with other members in a relaxed
informal setting, and the free entertainment value of watching the Mile
22 Fluid Station Captain freak out over what happens every year. The
2008 waterstop dealt with fire, 2009 dealt with no uplifting
music(Social Distortion is the last thing you want to hear at mile 22)
until the marathon unexpectedly came through with the DJ, 2010 dealt
with rain and flooding, 2011 dealt with being struck by lightning. If you’re running the full marathon, ask family, friends and coworkers to catch you at “Your water stop – Mile 22” or if
you enjoy to watch people suffer, mile 22 is definitely the place to be. We start looking for volunteers around March for the Flying Pig Marathon - Piggest Raffle Ever – The Runners’ Club of Greater Cincinnati participates in the Piggest
Raffle Ever with the Flying Pig Marathon. You can adopt a pig for $5
for a chance to to win a 2 year lease on a Toyota Prius, $10,000 Cash ($5,000 to the
winning ticket holder and $5,000 to the charity who sold the ticket)
or a $1500 Cincinnati experience on behalf of the club. To help out, select
Runners’ Club of Greater Cincinnati as the charity at www.piggestraffle.com when you adopt a pig and the club gets a portion of the proceeds. The Piggest Raffle Ever opens in January for the club.
