On June 22 the city of Bremond, Texas will host the 25th Annual Polish Pickle Run. The 5K race and companion Kids K kicks off festivities for the citywide Polish Day (Polski Dzien) celebration. The festival celebrates the Polish immigrants who settled in the area in the late 1800’s. Known as one of the better small town races in the state of Texas, the race offers runners many amenities. Prize money is given to the top 4 men and women overall. In addition money is given to the first male & female 40 to 49, first male & female 50 to 59 and first male & female over 60 years old. There is also a Clydesdale division that awards money to the first overall man weighing over 190 lbs. & female over 140 lbs. An additional bonus is paid out to any runner who breaks an age group record in any of the categories listed above. Total prize money has been increased to celebrate the run’s 25th Birthday. For those runners who don’t win a cash award, medals will be given three deep in five-year age groups. The Kids K offers medals to the top 5 Boys & girls, 10 years old and younger. The 5K is chip timed. All entrants will receive a unique T-shirt and are eligible for the prize drawing. The top prize is your choice of a heifer calf or $500, (and yes there have been winners in the past who have taken the calf). Second prize is your choice of either 30 bales of hay or $100. There will be other prizes to be announced. There is a large post race spread of food that includes pickles, barbecue, locally made baked goods, fruit and beverage (including piwo). The awards ceremony is followed by a parade. Cash prizes are given to the best floats. Other activities during the day include horseshoes, dominoes, volleyball, 3 on 3 basketball, and arts & crafts. Many food vendors will be on hand throughout the day. There will be live music played throughout the afternoon. The festival concludes with a street dance that night, held on Main Street, very near the finish line. You can enter early for the low price of $15 up till the day before the race and for $30 on the day of the event.
