Join us in Fremont on August 16! Beer City SLAM starts and finishes at Quarry Lakes Park and runs along the adjacent creek trails and bike paths. Beer City Festival includes a half marathon, 10k, and 5k distances. The Beer Stroll is a 1-mile walk for those who are mostly in it for the beer. Beat The Beast is our new take on the beer mile.
You don't have to have been part of other Beer City races to have a great time. You also don't have to care for beer. This gathering is meant for everyone and it's made by runners, for runners. So come out for a great time with sunshine, running, beer, and celebrating.
