5K Run/Walk - The 5k run walk will begin on Pembroke just beside the Tap Room.  The course will run through Irving Park where cold beer will await your arrival back at the Tap Room.

Costume Contest - Don't just put on your everyday running clothes. We want you to go 'old school' and show off your best retro runner costume.  We will have awards for the best retro runner and plenty of spirit along the course to keep you going.

Beer, Music and Fun - We've tossed the stale bagels and warm water for cold beer and hot food.  Each runner will be provided 2 free beer tokens and we will provide plenty of great food and fun and the finish line!  The post race activities will all take placein front of the Tap Room including LIVE music.
