Starting at 10:00AM, in the heat of the day on August 16th, a jail break will occur. Hundreds of runners (dressed in prison garb) will hear a siren and soon be pursued by coppers (volunteers) with hoses and super soakers as they try to Escape Ogden along the Ogden River Parkway Trail. Along the course, coppers (volunteers) jump out of bushes and hose you down. Prepare to get very wet! In defense, each prisoner will be given a small hand squirt gun to protect them (or take out other prisoners). If you have a more powerful firearm (squirt gun) we encourage you to bring it! Warning: Some coppers will be running the course trying to catch all the runners ahead of them, SO RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN! At the finish you will be able to take part in a fantastic water war with all the volunteers and runners. This awesome themed event will be a fun one for all involved, so don't miss out!!
