Registration opens for 2020 Pittsburgh Great Race

Online registration is now open for the 43rd annual Richard S. Caliguiri City of Pittsburgh Great Race.

This year’s Great Race will be run on Sept. 27.

The fee is $20 for the first 500 registrants.

Once 500 spots in the 5K and 10K are filled, the price will then increase to $25. Registration for the Junior Great Race will open and remain at $10 throughout the registration period.

“Pittsburgh’s largest fall race has become a beloved tradition for local runners and also inspires many new runners to run their first 5K or 10K each year,” said race director Brian Katze. “Offering a 10K, 5K, One Mile Family Fun Run, Tot Trot and Diaper Dash, the Great Race and Junior Great Race have become a ‘can’t miss’ race weekend for the whole family.”

Each year, the Great Race donates $1 from every Great Race and Junior Great Race registration to the Richard S. Caliguiri Amyloidosis Fund, a fund held by the Pittsburgh Foundation that is dedicated to supporting medical research.

The Great Race was established as a 10K race by the late Mayor Caliguiri. It has attracted nearly a half million participants since its inception in 1977.
