We’re back bigger and better this year with a DJ, hospitality tent, a cookout, street skating and line dancing. The best part? By cheering and partying from 6:30am - 10:30am, you’ll help earn money toward the Riverfront Rink revitalization campaign. Welcome to bring a dish or drinks to share, or just bring yourself!
Organizers need a headcount asap! The first 30 volunteers to register before April 24th and arrive the morning of the marathon by 6:30am will receive a free flying pig t-shirt .

⚠️ Important note on registration: The marathon organizers track our attendance so they can make a donation to the riverfront rink based on the number of folks we have present. If you are able to commit to participating from 6:30-10:30am on Sunday May 3rd (rain or shine!) please register so we receive credit for organizing our crew of participants! If you can’t commit to being there the whole time but still want to join us, you don’t need to register, just show up and come skate with us!
What to wear & bring:
🐽 Wear pink! It’s the official color of the Flying Pig.
Bring with you:
🐽 Your Skates & skate bag
🐽 Comfortable shoes (we’ll be on our feet all morning & you’ll need breaks from your skates)
🐽 A poncho (this is a rain or shine event)
🐽 Waterbottle
🐽 Sunscreen
🐽 Fun money: downtown establishments will be hosting events all weekend long and the riverfront will be full of amazing food vendors you’ll want to try at the Marathon Afterparty in Smale Riverfront Park.
