Same as 5Beer5K, but with a team of two to five runners. You figure out amongst your team who will run which legs, with at least one member of teams with less than 5 runners having to consume 2 or more beers and run 2 or more legs.  NOTE that the person consuming the beer must then run the following 1K leg.  Each team will be provided with a six-pack of their favourite Anderson Craft Ale for the race, plus an extra six-pack for the team after the race.

    1. Hi, Derek: Yup — just getting organized now. Friday August 23. Registration opens at 6:30 and gun time is 7:30 sharp. We aren’t 100% sure on the venue, but it will be in or around London Ontario.
