Run the Pig with Team G

The Team G(race) charity running team celebrated its 11th birthday as a running team. Obviously the last couple of years haven’t gone as planned, for us, and for every other person, business, or nonprofit, but we’re excited and hopeful about what lies ahead. On Flying Pig Weekend, Friday, April 29th through Sunday, May 1st, Team G will once again be represented at the Pig in Cincinnati, in the various events, from the 5k to the full Marathon. Plus, 2022 marks the 9th year that we are a Pig Partner Charity.

Team G’s first Flying Pig team, 2011

As a Partner Charity, Team G will use this event to help raise awareness about our program and the charitable initiatives we support (health and wellness programs for children). Anybody can run (or walk) and be part of the team at the Pig. Partner charities get a discount code that we can provide to individuals who want to participate with us, which will save 25% off of registration for any of the events (Flying Fur, 5K, 10K, Open Relay, Half Marathon, Full Marathon, 3-Ways & 4-Ways). The code is good until April 28, 2022, or until an event sells out. We don’t have a fundraising or require any other financial commitment; we just request that our members assist and help publicize our fundraising events. Our overall fundraising goal as a Partner Charity is $5,000. If you would like to donate to the team, you can do so online here.

If you’re new to running, the team meets regularly at Up and Running in Troy on Wednesday nights, and at various locations for road or trail runs other days of the week. You can stay informed about group runs and other events by joining the team’s Facebook group. We hope you can join us on Flying Pig Weekend!
