Race Description
New Bern will host its 4th annual Beer District Beer Mile on October 6, 2024. Participants will race by consuming four 12oz beers while completing a one-mile course, running a quarter mile after each drink. While this event provides a fun challenge, it is noted as an 'unofficial' beer mile, meaning that any records set will not be acknowledged by official record-keeping authorities.
The event, limited to 100 participants, features an entry fee of $25 per person for both individual runners and 2-person relay teams. Participants will receive a collectible challenge coin bottle opener. Proceeds from the event will contribute to purchasing an accessible race chair, promoting inclusivity within the local running community.
