Access Program

Launched in 2022, the Access Program strives to improve access to the Boilermaker’s namesake second-weekend-in-July events by reducing financial barriers. We strongly believe that running and road racing can change lives and no one should be excluded.

The program provides a select number of runners facing financial hardship with complimentary entry into any event, including the world-renowned 15K and 5K road races, in addition to footwear and training assistance, through partnerships with Wolfspeed and The Sneaker Store.

Applications for the 2023 Access Program have closed. If you’re interested in participating in 2024, please email community@boilermaker.com and we’ll let you know when the application is available.
