Cheers! It's time to start prepping for The Red Hare 5K to be held on Sept. 30, 2017 at Red Hare Brewing Company in Marietta.
The Red Hare 5K will take you through the streets of Marietta ending with a Red Hare beer garden celebration featuring live music, food and complimentary beer tasting (for those 21 & over, non-alcoholic Red Hare Root Beer soda will be available for anyone unable to drink beer). All runners will receive a custom Red Hare 5K pint glass and the first hundred or so runners back to the brewery will get a chance to taste our specialty Race Casks, get ‘em while they last! Overall awards will be given to M/F winners and the top 3 in all the usual 5 year age groups 10 & under to 75+. We hope you’ll come run with us!
We're just outside of Atlanta in beautiful Marietta, and there's not much that anyone can call flat & fast. The course is a single loop and we'll be chip timing.
Proceeds from the event will be going to Trees Atlanta; which is a nationally recognized non-profit citizens’ group that protects and improves Atlanta’s urban forest by planting, conserving and educating. Since 1985, Trees Atlanta has planted and distributed more than 100,000 trees. Trees Atlanta has an active volunteer corps of 4,500 citizens. For more information about Trees Atlanta, call 404-522-4097 or www.treesatlanta.org.
