This is the 27th annual Sap Run in Kennedy Heights! Kick off race season with a challenging course that rewards you with a full, hot breakfast—including all the pancakes you can eat.

The course is no easy walk in the park—the Kennedy Heights neighborhood is built on hills, and our run will challenge any runner or cyclist. Getting ready for the Flying Pig Marathon? Come test your hill endurance on this course.

Though a hilly course, the race itself is relaxed, only as competitive as you want it to be! Run the route more than once to challenge yourself to a 10K or 15K. Kids and families can ride the course on their bikes, too.

The race starts and ends at Kennedy Heights Presbyterian Church, 6312 Kennedy Ave, Cincinnati. You do not have to run to enjoy breakfast—just a $10 donation gets you all the sappy syrup you can summon.

Volunteers are needed to put up route signs in advance, check-in registrants, direct traffic during the race, cook breakfast, and clean up.
