What's the Scoop?

If you run a few miles, you deserve a treat and if you run 26 miles, you definitely deserve ice cream!

To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Flying Pig Marathon, Graeter’s Ice Cream, has created a special flavor! In honor of Cincinnati’s own annual marathon event, Graeter’s is releasing “Flying Pig Tracks” for a limited run.

Packed with peanut butter cups and chocolate fudge, Flying Pig Tracks will be released on April 28, available in all scoop shops, and select Kroger, Jungle Jim’s and Dorothy Lane stores in the Cincinnati and Dayton areas and online at Graeters.com. 

“Staying true to our Cincinnati roots, it made sense to honor the 25th anniversary of the Flying Pig Marathon with an ice cream release,” shares Chip Graeter, 4th generation co-owner of Graeter’s. “Beyond runners and fans, we think Flying Pig Tracks is a flavor everyone will enjoy and we're happy to offer it in all of our shops throughout the Midwest.”

In addition to the limited edition flavor, Graeter’s is also teaming up with Rookwood Pottery with a “Flying Pig” ice cream bowl. The bowl is the fifth in Graeter’s series of collectible Rookwood bowls. This very limited run carries a stamp commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Flying Pig Marathon. Available in limited quantities, the stamped Flying Pig bowl will be available for sale at $59.95 at the marathon registration event on Friday, May 5.
