That is correct; this is a 0.5K race. There is no need to be a marathoner, but participants must be 21 or over because the race is run while holding a pint of beer. Limited to 100 people participants receive an official running cup, a local brewed beer and a bottle opener participation medal.
WHAT YOU GET: An official runner’s number, a souvenir cup filled with local beer, a bottle opener participation medal & a general admission ticket to the festival.

THE GOAL: Finish the strenuous run as quickly as possible while keeping your beer above the official qualification line on your cup (serious beer-leg coordination is required!).

PRO TIP: Resist the urge to drink your beer before or during the race. Or, sip your beer and take a nice stroll along the bay front and leave the spilling to the ones that take everything too seriously.

WINNERS: Top 3 finishers take home a beautiful beer mug trophy handmade by local artist and all the glory!

After the run STAY for the festival. TASTE unique brews from around Texas. Enjoy LIVE MUSIC, food trucks and a slew of activities!
