FLANNELS & FRIENDS BEER MILE A Flannel-Themed Beer Mile Fall running season just got a little more ridiculous. 🍻 We're celebrating 10 years of UPside Brewing the best way we know how - a parking lot party and a Beer Mile Run! Grab your favorite flannel, lace up your running shoes, and get ready for a beer mile that’s equal parts running event, fall party, and questionable decision-making. Here’s how it works: 4 laps. 4 beers. 1 mile. Drink a beer > run a lap > repeat until you’ve conquered all four. Come ready to run, laugh, cheer on your friends, and fully commit to the flannel theme. Whether you’re here to chase a PR or just make it through all four laps with your dignity intact, there’s a place for you at the starting line. THE DETAILS 📅 Date: October 2nd 📍 Location: UPside Brewing, Sylvania, Ohio ⏰ Time: 7:00 PM 🍺 Beer Mile: 4 beers + 4 laps = 1 mile 👕 Dress Code: FLANNEL. The more committed, the better. 💵 Cost: $26 For Individual Runners ($10 of every registration will be donated to Hospice of Northwest Ohio) 🏃🏽➡️🏃🏼♀️➡️ NEW THIS YEAR - 4 PERSON RELAY TEAMS! 🏃🏽➡️🏃🏼♀️➡️ Don't want all the pressure of 4 Beers + 4 Laps? Register with your 3 best running (or drinking) friends and only be responsible for 1 beer and 1 lap. Select "Register with a group" when signing up. Find your team name and select it. Prizes for best team name and outfits! Relay Participant Pricing: $14/team member ($10 of every registration will be donated to Hospice of Northwest Ohio) 🚫 NOT A BEER PERSON? 🚫 We won't hold it against you.

WHAT TO EXPECT: 🍻 Beer 🏃♀️ Running 👕 Excessive amounts of flannel 🍂 Fall vibes 😂 Questionable athletic decisions 🏆 Bragging rights There may be faster runners. There may be faster drinkers.
