About the Cadillac Craft Beer Hustle
The course starts behind a local brewery and finishes under a clocktower at a trailhead, so you end at a genuine landmark rather than an anonymous finish line. The terrain is flat throughout with almost no climbing, and the route is marked and staffed, so navigation is not something you need to think about.
The race runs alongside the Cadillac Craft Beer Festival, and the festival opens shortly after the race finishes, which gives the morning a built-in reason to stick around. Packet pickup and on-site registration both happen at the start area before the gun goes off.

The Cadillac Craft Beer Hustle has been held every year since at least 2024. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
