Bull City Beer Runners

Bridle run in Umstead Park to start the new year! The planned route will be 8 - 8.5 miles on the bridal track (packed gravel). This route is hilly throughout.

After we can head to Flight Deck for a beer.

Our Tuesday Night Beer Run is a 5k (3.1-mile) route that starts and ends at BCBR sponsor, Durty Bull Brewing Co.

ALL PACES WELCOME! Paces range from 8ish to 12+, and no one gets left behind!

Summer route: https://www.strava.com/routes/26428785

(goes through Old North Durham, turns on Englewood across from Duke Park, and takes Washington/Morris to Morgan to Rigsbee back to Durty Bull)

Rules of the run:

1. Run at the pace of friendship (#RATPOF) - This means that if someone you're running with needs to slow down, slow down with them! And if YOU need to slow down, holler.
2. Be safe (BYO safety gear)
3. Have fun
4. Don't be a dick

Thursday Night Beer Run is just about 4 miles, with a beer break in the middle. The route starts and ends at Flying Bull on 9th street (you can park in the Harris Teeter lot or any of the side streets). We head downtown with a stop at Pour Tap Room (that isn't changing) and then do a different return route.

Rules of the run:

1. Run at the pace of friendship (#RATPOF)--This is a social event and not a race.
2. Be safe (BYO safety gear)
3. Have fun
4. Don't be a dick
