Notes

The team at Four Peaks Brewing Company is bringing back the fun!

The Four Peaks Kilt Chaser is one of the most unique and fun events you'll ever participate in! 

Modeled after the famous Skirt Chaser events, 

this event features a unique format on the traditional 5k Run. 

The women will be starting first at this one, with men chasing after approximately 3 minutes later. 

From here, it's a race to the finish to see if the women can outrun the boys!

Adding our own little twist to the event that will be held on National Tartan Day, we encourage our participants to wear kilts for the run!

Please note - this is a trail run.

The course consists of uneven paths, hills, and desert terrain.

Please take proper precautions when preparing for this event.

 

 

Charity Partner

 

Charity partner for this event is the Caledonian Society of Arizona.  

The original Scottish Society of Arizona was organized on September 26th, 1953. The first Highland Games were put on in 1964 by members who played in the Phoenix Scottish Pipe band. The Highland Society of AZ was formed shortly thereafter to take over the Games and to hold an annual St. Andrew’s Day Dance. It became a 501[c]3 Non-Profit in 1976 and the name changed in 1981 to the Caledonian Society of Arizona.

Jean Latimer Memorial Scholarship 

As part of the Society's mission to promote Scottish culture, arts and education, we occasionally make funds available for related activities or scholarships.
