About the Need A Pizza And Beer Run

The format here is straightforward: eat a slice of pizza, run half a lap, drink a beer, run the rest of the way to the finish. Non-alcoholic beer is on hand too, and there is a separate kids' race with fruited water. The whole thing is put on by a charitable foundation that directs proceeds back into the Cedar Rapids area.
