About the EDRRC - Beer Mile
The beer mile format is simple: drink a beer, run a lap, repeat until the mile is done. Competitors bring their own beer, and the rules are strict about can size, alcohol content, and no tampering. Several categories run separately, from traditional beer to cider to soda, so designated drivers and non-drinkers have a place in the field too.
Packet pickup opens at noon on race day, ahead of a sharp start in the early afternoon. The waiver must be downloaded and signed before you arrive, as no extras are provided on site. Everything you bring in leaves with you at the end, including empties. All participants must arrive and depart with a designated driver.

The EDRRC - Beer Mile has been held every year since at least 2021. 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.
