Organiser's Description
New Bern's 6th annual beer mile! Drink a 12oz beer, run one-quarter mile, drink a beer & run, drink a beer & run, drink a beer & run. 4 beers in one mile.
The world record is now 4 minutes, 28 seconds (males) and 5 minutes, 43 seconds (females). This will be an "unofficial" beer mile, so broken records will not be acknowledged by the world record gurus. Registration will be limited to 100 participants; participants will receive the 2026 challenge coin bottle opener. Please be sure to designate a driver before stepping up to the start line.
Does the thought of 4 beers and 4 laps sound intimidating? Find a partner and race as a 2-person relay team.
Cost of the individual beer mile is $25 per person. Cost to participate as a 2-person relay team is also $25 per person; you can create a group/team during registration or on race day. Teams are limited to 2 people...let's see who can be creative with their team name.
Freshwater Beer Company and Coastal Sole Performance Footwear are partnering together for this fun event. 100% of registration costs and donations will go towards the cost of a New Bern Bear dedicated to Motorcycle Awareness in memory of Allen Birzack.
