RACE RULES
5K and Beer mile rules:
For the safety of all participants, and for insurance reasons: Baby joggers or strollers are not allowed in the 5K race or beer mile. No dogs in the race or the start/finish area. No participants with leg or foot casts. No exceptions to above rules.
Beer mile specific rules:
Two heats will take place: a competitive heat and non-competitive/costume heat for the beer mile.
Each competitor drinks four cans or bottles of beer and runs four laps around the course (start with chugging a beer, then run a lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap - finish).
Beer must be consumed within the transition area before the lap begins.
The race begins with competitors lined up on the mile starting line, drinking the first beer in the transition zone described in the step above. This ensures competitors cover a complete mile. Competitors can walk/move in the transition area while drinking, but all beer must be consumed in the transition area before setting off to run a lap.
Each beer can/bottle must not be opened until the competitor enters the transition zone on each lap.
Competitors who vomit before they finish the race must complete one penalty lap at the end of the race (immediately after the completion of their 4th lap). Vomiting more than once during the race still only requires one penalty lap at the end.
Empty beer vessel must be tipped over participant head after each chug to verify an empty vessel.
Costume contest rules:
There will be an individual racer costume contest and a group costume contest. All participants must be registered and participate in the beer mile.
