ABOUT THIS RACE:
Race Starting Location:

The MN Brewery Running Series - Arbor Day 5K is a Running race in Minneapolis, Minnesota consisting of a 5K.
We are the Minnesota Brewery Running Series and we run for beer!
Join us for an Arbor Day 5k for a 5k-ish course at Theodore Wirth Park! Weave through the surrounding area at whatever pace you like, no matter what there's a beer waiting for you at the finish line!
We are all about being active, having fun and giving back to our local community. 100% of proceeds from this event goes to Brewing A Better Forest - a non-profit group of arborists and tree lovers who are passionate about trees and craft beer in the Twin Cities. The crew at Brewing a Better Forest strives to engage and encourage residents to notice, appreciate, and help water newly planted city trees. They work with local craft brewers to help us spread the word of the importance of watering trees during their first few years on our boulevards. Adopt-A-Tree today!
What's included?! All participants receive a FREE craft brew and get to take home a collectors pint glass or seasonal swag item from the Brewery Running Series...plus goodies and giveaways from our partners and sponsors + chance to win sweet door prizes and more free beer! Your registration also earns you an invitation to stick around and enjoy the day's entertainment: live music, food offerings, local vendors, and fun with our sponsors.
Registration is limited, so sign up today!
