ANTHRAX 2024! DEC. 13-15

Dates are December 13-15. Get in quick, because prices increase as more people sign up.

Why should I go to Anthrax?
  • Anthrax is Chicago’s premium hash event filled with cold weather, colder beer, hazmat suits, Santa hats, Malört, and people dumb enough to keep cumming back from all over the world.
  • Rego gets you three days of drinking and two nights of food, plus a gimme, a patch, and a hangover that’ll last you into the new year.
  • We’re juicing it up this year: rego is capped at 200 attendees, so bring your entire polycule 😉.
  • Main event will have four trails: Walkers, Turkey, Eagle, and Ballbuster. Run them all for all we care!
  • Main event is at Brickhouse Taverna snowball’s throw from Wrigley Field. Go sports!
  • Dance party after circle with DJ Serial Shit Squirter.
  • Sunday Hangover trail is Dragthrax, the sloppiest drag running event in Chicago that weekend.
  • There may also be a photo booth, a masseuse, and actual Santa Claus.
