July 15, 2017, Saturday - Boom Island Brewing Beer Run

Boom Island Brewing Beer Run

It doesn’t get more simple than this: walk / jog / run … drink beer … and raise money for local non-profits!

Join us at 11AM on Saturday, July 15th at Boom Island Brewing and enjoy a 5k-ish fun run through the surrounding neighborhood, parks, and streetscape. You can walk, jog, run… no one cares. We’ve mapped out an awesome course that starts and ends at the brewery and our guides along the way will make sure you know where to go. Cross the finish line and celebrate!

All participants receive a FREE Boom Island Brewing craft brew and get to take home a collectors pint glass or seasonal swag item – plus a few extras! Bring the whole gang! Everyone is welcome to stick around and enjoy the day’s entertainment: live music, food trucks, and fun!

Registration is limited, so sign up today!

Let’s consider this an “un-race” as it goes against many principles of those fancy 5k races you may be familiar with. This is not timed and you will not get a medal when you finish. What you will get is an excuse to enjoy the great Minnesota outdoors, FREE beer and swag, and the wonderful feeling that you are supporting our local community. Remember: a portion of all proceeds go to benefit MN non-profits. Check our website to see who we support and why: www.breweryrunningseries.com!

Some more important things to note:
• This will be an OPEN course, meaning roads will not be closed. You are responsible for obeying all traffic laws and regulations
• You must bring a valid ID or drivers license. You do not need to be 21 to enjoy the course, but you must be 21 to enjoy the beer. Please drink responsibly. (Registered, underage participants will receive a FREE non-alcoholic beverage)
• We run rain or shine! Please dress appropriately for the weather
• There will not be a bag check; please plan accordingly

The fun-run starts at 11AM sharp! Plan to arrive about 30 minutes prior to check-in to check out our partners, sponsors and pre-race activities. Don’t forget some extra $$$. In addition to your FREE beer and swag, there will be merchandise for sale, food trucks, and plenty more beer!
