The Pub Shuffle!
Get ready for a super fun St. Patrick’s celebration run on Sunday, March 14th, 2021.
The Shamrock Pub Shuffle is a celebration of St. Patrick’s Day through the spirit of running and gathering at the local pub.
This year’s Pub Shuffle brings an entirely new course and new pubs as we run through the Lincoln Park craft district. The 2.8 mile fun run begins next to Wild State Cider. Following mostly the cross city path (lakewalk extension) we run/walk together in waves to Bent Paddle first, then to Ursa Minor. At each of the first two stops you will have 15 minutes to grab a drink before your wave heads back to the finisher festival at Wild State Cider.
Festiversary Beer Mile Classic
Kick off Festivisary with the inaugural Festiversary Beer Mile Classic presented by Bent Paddle and Duluth Running Co.
What? A beer mile? Yes! If you’re not familiar, a beer mile is a one mile race that involves running(or walking if you prefer) and drinking. This underground style event is typically held on a track and involves drinking four 12oz beers. A beer is consumed prior to the start of the race, and one again after completing the first, second, and third quarter laps.
The Festiversary Beer Mile Classic flips the beer mile on its head. Instead of running on a track we’re holding our event on West Michigan street next to Bent Paddle. And instead of consuming four 12 oz beers out of bottles participants in this beer mile consume four 7oz pre-poured Bent Paddle Classic beers (Approx 2 ⅓ beers). Each beer is consumed in the same order as a traditional beer mile. Much like the new Bent Paddle Classic beer we’ve made our beer mile approachable for everyone.
This event is limited to the first 500 registrants.
