Organiser's description

Do you make bad choices? Are you maybe susceptible to peer pressure? Have you never understood why Tuesday Track is not also a Thirsty Thursday? If that sounds like you, you should come out to Missoula's first and only camera-timed beer mile. With official timing and scoring via FinishLynx - the same system used at Hayward Field - but run on a dirt track to keep things fitting for a race in Montana.

The festivities will start at 6:00, with the first race going off at 6:30 - and finishing with the elite heat at 7:00, and then for folks who are still standing, a trip to Flippers for Rainiers on the race director.

Don't drink beer? Think N/A beer is a cop out? We've got a division for you - drink 5% regulation beer-mile beers, Athletic Brewing, Kombucha, Cream Soda, La Croix, anything really - just come with 4 of them and racing flats and good vibes.

Events are free to run, but BYOB.
