On April 23rd, which is the day after Earth Day, Oregon Brewery Running Series is partnering with Stickmen Brewery in Tualatin for the Hoppy Earth Day Brewfest and 5k Run. You can purchase tickets online; the 5k run costs its usual $35, run and event shirt is $50.
As with all OBRS events, you’ll want to arrive about 30-45 minutes before the race starts at 1015a, so you have time to pick up and customize your race bib. There will be a mass start at 1015, but you can also elect a self-start any time between 1015a and 11a. You’ll also want to leave any extra clothing in your car and plan to carry your car keys and other essentials (or leave them with a non-runner), as there is no bag check. The race course is 3.1ish miles long, will be open in nature (i.e. not closed to cars), and participants will be expected to stay on sidewalks and obey all traffic laws. There is no timing mat or clock, so you can choose to keep track of your own time, or not. The first male and first female to cross the finish line will receive a growler filled with the beverage of their choice.
After you cross the finish line, there will be music, snacks, and drinks (one beer for participants age 21 or older). There will be a raffle for items from sponsors as well as OBRS swag and games and activities galore. The cost is $35 and 10% of all the proceeds will support the series nonprofit partners.
