June and summer are finally here, and things are heating up in Central Oregon. While last month was chock-full of races and fitness, this month, while still racing and working on our fitness, there’s also some fun and unique elements, and setup 2022 to be the best summer ever!
June 4, 2022 – Beer Chase
Gather your team for this six-person running relay spanning approximately 55 miles over one epic day. Consisting of 12 legs of varying distances (4-8 miles per leg), each runner on the team runs two legs.
The course starts at 10 Barrel Brewing in Bend, travels to Redmond, and back to finish at the Deschutes Historical Museum in downtown Bend.
Local breweries host exchange points where participants sample their craft beer throughout the course. And with 20 beers on tap at the finish line, participants can enjoy a pint from their favorite brewery!
So register for the Bend Beer Chase and take the opportunity to spend the day outdoors enjoying the views, amazing craft brews, and getting in some exercise, all while being with friends!
