“Half the Distance, Twice the Fun!” this Saturday at Holiday Valley
By Brooke Szpaicher
Hope you have been practicing or training for this weekend’s events, whether you want to participate in the 5K, half marathon, or the beer mile! Yes, the beer mile! Get those legs ready for a fun-filled day! This race is about putting the FUN in running, it’s not always about the distance, but how you get there! Be on the lookout for fun surprises along both of the fun and safe certified courses!
Both races begin at the Holiday Valley Main Chalet area. Get pumped up with a live DJ; whether you come in your running gear or a group costume, you are guaranteed to have fun! The half marathon begins promptly at 9am followed by the 5K beginning at 9:20am. Every racer will receive a super awesome finishers medal, a soft race shirt, chip timing, on course support, after race recovery snack bag, and of course laughter and that feeling of accomplishment at the finish line!
The Beer Mile starts at 1pm and is a two-person relay. Each participant runs a half mile and stop to chug two beers. You will be timed for your overall mile together, receive a Southern Tier Brewing T-shirt, and enjoyment of the after party sponsored by Southern Tier Brewing.
