    Race Description

    If you like whiskey, wine, and running 5k races, then this event is a perfect match for you. Welcome to the 2nd annual Whiskey and Wine 5K. This is a one-of-a-kind event where participants can not only run a 5K but also enjoy an optional whiskey and wine tasting while doing it. Participants will be able to try a different whiskey and/or wine every half mile along the 5K course. If you’re doing the math, that’s 6 different tastings throughout the course! After completing the 5K course and 6 tastings of various whiskies and wines, you will be able to choose which bottle of whiskey or wine you want to take home with you as our gift to you.

    We will provide three different wines and three different whiskies for your enjoyment on the course. The exact flavors will be kept a secret until the day of the event. However, participants can expect to taste unique whiskies and wines. For example, no Jack Daniels whiskey and no Barefoot wine.

    Race Course

    The course is a one loop, 5K course. The course will be clearly marked with signs and flagging tape. It will pass by Lake Tranquility at Oak Mountain State Park. There will be some elevation so be prepared!

    Event Rules

    All participants will receive a custom wristband at packet pick-up. Participants must wear this wristband while running the 5K course. When arriving at a tasting, if you are not wearing your wristband, you will not be able to taste any whiskey or wine. There will be NO exceptions to this rule. All participants must be 21 or older. There will be NO alcohol sales at this event.

    Race Location and Packet Pickup

    The Whiskey and Wine 5K will be held at Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham, Alabama. There is no early packet pickup for this event. Race day packet pickup will be at the Redbud Pavilion (33.349113, -86.728967). Plug these GPS coordinates into Google Maps and it will bring you straight to the start/finish line. There will be plenty of parking and access to restrooms. Packet pickup will be from 2:45 PM to 3:45 PM. Participants must bring their photo ID for positive identification and age verification. NO exceptions.

    A pre-run briefing will take place at 3:45 PM. The event begins at 4:00 PM sharp. Runners will receive a custom wristband at packet pickup upon proof of identification and age verification. The wristband will serve as your “ticket” to be able to taste the whiskey and wine along the course if you choose.

    Awards, Swag

    There will not be any awards given for finishing 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in this event. Always do your best! But, if you liked the wine you tasted at the fourth tasting (mile 2), you get to take a bottle of that wine home with you as our gift to you to commemorate your participation in this event. The bottle of whiskey or wine is your finisher’s medal, if you will. Once you finish running the course, your wristband will be taken in exchange for your bottle of whiskey or wine.

    We will have the same number bottles as we do runners. For example, if 100 runners show up for the 5K, we will have 100 bottles of whiskey/wine as finisher medals, our gift to you. So, what does that mean for you, the runner? If you want to take home the exact bottle of whiskey or wine of your choosing, run really fast! As soon as each runner finishes the course, they can pick the bottle of their choice. As runners finish, bottles start to disappear. So, for example, if you finish in 15th place in the example of 100 runners, you’ll be able to get the bottle of whiskey or wine of your choice. However, if you finish 85th, it is likely you will not get your first choice. The whiskey or wine you enjoyed the most may be gone. In this case, you’ll have to choose from what remains. Bottom line… RUN FAST!

    Aid Stations

    One aid station will be set up at the halfway point of the course. Another aid station will be set up at the end of the course. We will provide water for the participants at both aid stations.

    Refunds

    We understand things happen in training and in life itself. However, no refunds will be given to any participant for this event. In the event you can find another runner to take your spot, you can transfer your entry to them. Just email us and we will make sure to get them registered using your entry fee.
