About
We have a new location for our 8K in 2016 and it is a good one! The 8K will be moving to Preyer Brewing Company for a unique, scenic, USATF Certified Course. This will be the second event in the Race the Bar Series. Every race counts towards the end of the year series prizes!
We have moved the 8K race to May and it is a bit later in the day to try and combat potential heat. Come on out for this great evening event!

Parking is limited at Preyer Brewing Company so be prepared to make use of city parking near the race site. Please do not park at Deep Roots or any other businesses that are open on Sunday afternoon. This means leaving a bit of extra time to get to the race site. Keep an eye out for No Parking signs along the course so that your car does not get towed!
Fleet Feet Sports will be available to provide complimentary bag check for this race. So if you have things you don’t want to take back to the car or carry on the course, stop by their tent to drop it off!
