What we’re about
The Chicago Beer Runners
Looking for fun, social runners interested in meeting other fellow runners in a relaxed, noncompetitive environment? Join us for biweekly runs around Lakeview, followed by a cold beverage or three. All abilities from beginner to experienced welcome. We don't break into formal pace groups, but with people who average anywhere between 7 and 14 minute miles, you'll usually find someone to run with.
We meet year-round and have a lot of fun whether it's 85 and sunny or 10 and snowing. Beer Runners don't stop. And we meet throughout the year for races and parties, too. Join the fun!

Beer Runners meets at Kirkwood in Lakeview on Wednesday nights. We meet at the bar, start the run at 6:35pm, and then meet back at the bar by about 7:10pm.
We don't have set pace groups or apply pressure to run faster/slower. Our typical route is around ~5k. That said, feel free to extend or cut short the run as you see fit, run whatever you are comfortable with, and meet us back at the bar to eat, drink, and be merry!
