We are celebrating 10 YEARS of running in circles all night, and we just dropped the official logo for the 2026 Get Your Butt Kicked @ Route 66 race! Take a look at this year's golden milestone design, featuring our favorite exhausted slug.

We are exactly one month away from taking over Route 66 State Park. Whether you're aiming to crush the 3-hour or survive the 6-hour option, this mid-summer night’s run is guaranteed to test your grit.

WARNING: This race has sold out in the final weeks for the past two years. Don't wait until it’s too late — secure your spot, grab a milestone finisher's medal, and snag those custom custom GYBK Sock Guy socks!
