About This Club
Running for Brews Orlando is a free weekly 5k that ends at a brewery or bar for drinks and raffles. It's built for people who want a low-stakes reason to run and then hang out, not for anyone chasing a training plan. If you like the idea of running becoming a social occasion rather than a workout to survive, this is that.
Highlights
- Social beer run focus
- Nationwide network
- Waiver for easy signup
- Free to join
- Weekly post-run raffles
- Craft brews after run
Who It Suits
This suits beginners, walkers, and people who want running paired with a social drink afterward, the free cost and no-membership setup make it an easy first step. It's not built for competitive racers or long-distance runners since the format is a fixed 5k, and it's not a trail club either, everything's on roads and pavement. If you're chasing PRs or mileage, look elsewhere; if you want a weekly 5k with beer at the end, this fits.

What a Run With Them Is Like
Every week it's the same shape: a 5k on roads and pavement, run at your own pace, with all levels welcome. There's no stated pace group structure, so you're not locked into anyone else's speed, you just go out and do your own 5k. The terrain is flat and paved rather than trail, so it's straightforward underfoot.

Your First Run
Fill out the running waiver online before you show up, that's the one piece of admin, and it's free either way. Arrive early to check in at the brewery or bar where that week's run starts.
Because all paces and walkers are explicitly welcome, nobody's timing you against a group standard, you run your own 5k and come back to the same brews and raffle everyone else is waiting for. There's no membership to join first, you just turn up with the waiver done.
