A partner in the first-even Kentucky State BBQ Festival!

Click here for the informative PDF.

Click here for the registration form.

In conjunction with the 1st Annual KY BBQ Festival later that same day, we will be having a "Doughman" style race in Danville.
These team relay triathlons involve several legs of eating and then running/biking/swimming your way to a BBQ-flavored victory. What's not to love about eating and then immediately exercising?

So with the pork being pulled later that day at Constitution Square, we will be racing for glory around Danville, hitting some of Danville's iconic eateries. We got the tasty hogs at the historic logs of Kentucky's birthplace...

So get your 4 person triathlon team together and GET HOG TRI'D!

___________LEG INFO______________

Leg#1 Wings Give You Wings
After a dozen of Lucky Dog's chicken wings, you are off and running just under 3 miles to Mallard's. This leg goes through Millennium Park and the Fairgrounds.

Leg#2 Sink or Swim
At Wellness Center back door, you will eat something from The Hub, and then you're in for a two lap swim (with floatie) and then run back downtown along 150. (around 2.3 miles). End at Melton's. How will you handle the run/swim/run transition?

Leg#3 Club To The Gut
Who's your daddy? The Big Daddy Club at Melton's awaits this team member--plenty to power them through a ten mile bike loop out Bluegrass Pike. Finish at 303W.

Leg#4 Veg Out
303W will have a healthy vegetarian option (veggie burger) for you at this stop with nice sides. Will it stick to your ribs as you then run the Volksmarch 5K route around the historic downtown? Finish at Constitution Square (Governor's Circle).

Leg#5 Twisted Team Finish
One cupcake a piece for each finisher and then a short sprint to the finish line. There will be a surprise but tasty element to the finish for one or all of your team members, so be prepared for a saucy slide and wild finish.

Complete leg details will be online soon, so stay tuned for downloadable PDFs.


We hope to see everyone for the KY BBQ FESTIVAL and the Hogs & Logs Triathlon!
