Lace up your running shoes – Outlaw Partners is excited to present a new trail race that explores the incredible single-track in the Big Sky Community Organization’s local trail system. Running of the Bulls will feature a 5K Relay, 11K and 21K distances, and is a part of many weeklong events leading up to Big Sky PBR, known as Big Sky’s Biggest Week. Running of the Bulls, in partnership with BSCO, will take place on Sunday, July 13 and registration fees will benefit BSCO and the year-round public trails the organization maintains.
“BSCO is so excited to partner up with Outlaw and welcome our community onto our trails for the inaugural Running of the Bulls race this summer,” said Liv Grubaugh, BSCO’s Director of Development and Communications. “This event not only celebrates our incredible trail system, it also supports our mission of a connected and thriving community. We’re honored to have been selected as the beneficiary and cannot wait to see everyone at the start line in July.”
The race will take place on the single-track BSCO trails that extend throughout the heart of Big Sky. Runners can register for a 5K Relay team of three people, a 11K race, or a 21K race that will begin and end at the Big Sky Events Arena. Prizes will be awarded to women and men in each category at the post-event sponsor expo, which will also include brand activations, food and beverages.
“Outlaw is very excited to partner with BSCO for such a fun and beneficial event during Big Sky’s Biggest Week,” said Ennion Williams, VP of Events at Outlaw Partners. “It’s going to be a great way to raise money for such an important aspect of the Big Sky community during one of the best and busiest weeks of the summer. I think we will have a great turnout.”
Big Sky’s Biggest Week takes place from July 11-19 ending with Professional Bull Riding’s 10x Event of the Year, Big Sky PBR, from July 17-19 in the Big Sky Events Arena. In addition to the three nights of action-packed bull riding, the week is filled with activities for the entire community.
