I love craft beer. It’s as simple as that. There is just something about the local flavors and love that goes into each batch of liquidy goodness. I also love to run. Combining the two is a more perfect pairing than a steak and an IPA of 100+ IBU’s! Hence, the 2023 Bridge to Brews hosted by Terrapin events appears to be my kind of race! This is an iconic race at Waterfront Park in…

It’s an odd shape, it’s dirt, and it’s tough to do workouts on, especially if you’re the local track team! Slowly but surely, this courageous group of boosters has been inching closer to reaching their budget, and plans are now underway to begin working on the…
