Event Rules
CYFL Panthers - Sew Hop’d Brew the Distance Rules
1. Each competitor regardless of gender drinks four 5-ounce beers provided by Sew Hop’d Brewery and runs four laps around the ¼ mile course (starting with chugging a beer, then run a lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap – finish).
2. Every competitor MUST be over 21 years of age. Identification will be required at check in on race day. Designated drivers or use of public transportation is highly encouraged.
3. Beer must be consumed within the transition area before a lap begins. The transition area known as the Chug Zone is between the starting line for the mile race and the finish line of a ¼ mile lap loop course.
4. The race begins with competitors lined up on the mile starting line, drinking the first beer in the Chug Zone as described above. This ensures competitors cover a complete mile. Competitors can walk/move within the Chug Zone while drinking, but all beer must be consumed in the Chug Zone before setting off to run a lap.
5. Competitors must drink the 5% alcohol beer provided by Sew Hop’d Brewery.
6. Beer will be drank from four numbered, 5 ounce cups, one for each lap.
7. Evidence of the race and proof that all beer was sufficiently consumed will be required. This will be achieved by competitors tipping the empty beer cup over their head after each chug to verify the empty cup. Proof at the start line will be determined by race officials witnessing the tipped cup and releasing each competitor.
8. No pacers or mules are permitted on the course, only registered runners.
9. No dogs permitted on the course.
10. Most importantly, feel free to dress up, enjoy yourself, and HAVE FUN!
