A Taco Bell Running Challenge
Run from Taco Bell to Taco Bell and consume a menu item at each location. You don't have to actually eat a taco at each location, but it'd be cooler if you did. Starting from the Westside Olympia Taco Bell runners will make their way through town from Bell to Bell and the return to the start. All you have to do is complete it during business hours!
Course
A suggested course is provided for each distance option, but runners may also plan their own course. There are four different options
7 Taco Bells - 35+ miles
6 Taco Bells - 26.2 miles
4 Taco Bells - 20+ miles
3 Taco Bells - 15+ miles
Suggested course maps will be posted ASAP! Don't be afraid to plan your own route though! Be creative!

Run a large loop including all 7 Taco Bells in the Greater Olympia/Lacey/Tumwater area. Eat a taco or more at each location. Each runner must have at least three unique eats throughout the day.

The Dolly Parton
Country music icon Dolly Parton recently revealed her go-to Taco Bell order: the Soft Taco Supreme. Runners who eat one at each Bell may receive a special award at the end!
Self Supported, Open Course
Each runner will be required to carry their own supplies. Taco Bells will be your aid stations, and you'll have to buy your own tacos so bring your money!
We'll do our best to time you all, but the race director and the timers will also be running and baja blasting each location, so make sure you keep track of your own run. Share your GPS data with us at the end so we can be sure that we record your result accurately!.
