About the Go Cross Beer Mile Relay

This one happens at Fallon Park, tucked into the infield of the cyclocross course, right after the elite racers have finished. Each team rotates through laps that mix running, beer drinking, and hobby biking on small bikes. Costumes are part of the deal, and the crowd is there to heckle as much as cheer. The whole thing has a festival-within-a-festival feel.

Teams need at least a couple of members and no more than a few. Beer must be finished before each lap begins, and non-alcoholic options can be requested ahead of time. Onsite registration closes before the race briefing, which is mandatory and happens at the RunAbout tent shortly before the start. All participants must be of legal drinking age and get an ID band before lining up.
