Description:

So what exactly is… “Thunder Chicken”? We are so glad you asked! Long-story-short, one of our runners serves in the US Army and when we invited her on our podcast in 2021, we found out that her “call-sign” in the Army is THUNDER CHICKEN! And as we mentioned before, we are honoring our military runners/hikers with this trail party, so “Thunder Chicken” was the obvious choice for this race’s name! You can check out that podcast episode here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sassquad-trail-runners/id1524865519 The Thunder Chicken Story is at the 54 minute mark! Remember, if you are serving in the Armed Forces right now or you are a Veteran, please use the code THUNDER CHICKEN to save 50% as a small way for us to say thank-you! We will be supporting our charity partner “Operation Chillout” who we have proudly partnered with since we started our race series in 2018. Operation Chillout provides warm clothing to homeless Veterans in New Jersey! You can learn more about Operation Chillout by visiting their website: https://operationchillout.org/
