Jog ‘n Hog to Challenge the Stomachs of Philadelphia-Area Runners on July 15, 2012

YARDLEY, PA – Run, eat, run. That is the simple premise behind the inaugural Uncle Dave’s Ice Cream Jog n’ Hog, a fun and slightly crazy event that will challenge participants’ bodies, minds… and stomachs.

Here is how it works: runners jog 2 miles on Shady Brook Farm in Bucks County, stop and eat a QUART of Uncle Dave’s ice cream and then run two miles back to the starting line on expanded stomachs.

The Jog ‘n Hog will be held on Sunday, July 15 (National Ice Cream Day) at 8:30 AM. It is open to everyone age 13 and up. Children under age 13 can run the Junior Hogger, which consists of dashing 100 yards, eating a 3-ounce cup of Uncle Dave’s ice cream and dashing back 100 yards. The Junior Hogger starts at 10 AM. All participants receive a race t-shirt.

Registration for the Jog ‘n Hog is now open at www.jognhog.com. Jog ‘n Hog is a proud supporter of the Bucks County Housing Group’s Penndel Food Pantry. All racers are asked to bring a non-perishable food item with them on race day.

Jog ‘n Hog is a national race series that was founded in 2011 by brothers and Bucks County residents Brian and Andrew Smith. Each race features food that is unique to a particular area of the country.
