The Philly Beerathon Will Feature a 5k Run and Beer Fest With Unlimited Craft Beer Tastings
Love beer? Love running? Why not merge the two with the Philly Beerathon taking place at the Marine Parade Grounds inside Navy Yard on May 11th.
Participants can walk or run the 5k course and then cross the finish line that ends at a beer festival. Guests will “earn their beer by the mile,” and enjoy unlimited craft beer tastings from some of the area’s top breweries. In addition to brews, Beerathon will also offer wine selections, seltzers, meads, and more. Each guest will also receive a souvenir tasting cup to use at the beer fest.
Entertainment with live DJs and food trucks (for food purchases) will also be on-hand. For those not looking to run or walk, tickets for just the beer festival are also available for purchase. The early bird tickets are available on runsignup.com to the 5K + beer fest are $29, just the 5K run is $19, and beer fest only option is $35.
“Born out of training injuries that sidelined a group of friends from competing in the New York City marathon, we pivoted to something we were also good at: drinking beers. So, in 2011, in New York City, the Beerathon was born. A 26 bar, 26 beer adventure that captured the imaginations of beer lovers around the world. Now, over a decade of Beerathons around the country later, we’re adding the newest challenge: Beers, Run, Ridiculous Fun,” the organizers stated.
