Description

Join us for the race that celebrates all that is great about Lexington!

 

Join us for the 3rd Annual BIG LEX 4 Miler on Saturday, May 29, 2021, at 8:00am at historic Keeneland Race Course.  

The race will be a celebration of all things Lexington as we officially kick off summer in the Bluegrass.  Our race will feature commemorative race shirts (Men's and Women's sizes available), a unique 4 mile race course through the historic Keeneland grounds, an exciting team competition, overall and age group awards, DJ James Hummel (Freestyle Entertainment), free race photos and more.

In addition to the signature 4 Miler, we'll also have a 1 Mile Fun Walk, Little LEX Kids' 1K Run/Walk, and Virtual Runner/Walker opportunity.  Virtual runners/walkers make a donation to the race, and we will mail them their commemorative race shirt and bib.  This allows anyone anywhere to join in the fun!

REFERRAL REWARDS   Refer 3 friends or family members who sign up for the race using the unique registration link you'll receive when you register and earn a $10 REFUND on your original registration.  It pays to refer friends to this race!

TEAM PRICING  Consider forming a SOCIAL TEAM team to expand your race day experience.  We'll have a prize for the largest team.   For teams of 5 or more, members will receive a $3.00 price discount on their race registration.  Don't go it alone--form or join a team!

COVID-19 SAFETY MEASURES   While the race is months away, we still plan to have in place a number of COVID-19 safety protocols.  These measures will include (1) Masks worn by all runners, spectators, race volunteers and race staff (you do not need to wear your mask when you run/walk your race), (2) Social distancing encouraged throughout the event, (3) Staggered/wave start based on estimated pace time (i.e. 6 min/mile, 7 min/mile through 22 min/mile), and (4) a race cap of 800 in-person runners/walkers.

VIRTUAL RUNNER/WALKER OPTION  We are offering a virtual runner/walker option for those who cannot make the May 29th in-person race or choose not to participate at that time.  We'll plan both a local packet pickup and/or mail packets to those who choose to "go virtual" and live outside of Central Kentucky.

Our race charity beneficiary is the Dv8 Kitchen Vocational Training Foundation.
