  • Where: The Shop Beer Co (922 W 1st St. Tempe, AZ 85281)

Timeline:

How it Works:

  • Arrive Early to Demo the All-New On Cloudmonster 3 & Cloudrunner 3 - Collect Raffle Tickets

  • At 6:00p - Run to as many checkpoints as possible, collecting raffle tickets along the way

  • Return to The Shop by 7:00p to put all your raffle tickets into the drawing

  • Grab discounted beers from The Shop & great food from the Food Truck

  • Win Prizes, meet new friends, drink great beer!

Running Route & Directions:

This is an Adventure-Run style event, meaning there is no set route. For those who register early, you will receive the map of all checkpoints in your inbox by 4:30p. This gives you an hour to plan the best route and collect as many raffle tickets as possible! For those who do not register early, you will receive the checkpoints on-site at 5:55p.

Checkpoints will be scattered around Downtown Tempe & Tempe Town Lake - highlighting all the amazing local businesses we have here in our city! Some of the further checkpoints will have 2-3 raffle tickets, so plan your route wisely!

For the efficient route runners, it is possible to hit 90-100% of the checkpoints.

For those running more casually, you can expect to hit 60-80% of the checkpoints.

Raffle tickets will also be awarded to those who demo a pair of Brooks Running Shoes & Meet with our Balega Sock Rep!

Parking:

Parking will be limited at The Shop, so we recommend the free street parking along W 1st St between Beck & Farmer Ave.

The Rules:

  • Hydrate! We will have water & Electrolyte Drink for you before the run

  • Obey all traffic laws as you run from checkpoint to checkpoint. This is not a closed course

  • No scooters, bikes, skateboards or other modes of transportation allowed

  • Have fun and be respectful of others!

  • Interact with our vendors and buy some beer and/or food - they help make this all possible!
