2025 Dogtown Beer Down - Beer Mile

Join us Saturday, October 11th, for the Fifth Annual Argenta Beer Mile!

What is the Beer Mile?

***Drink 4 beers and run 4 laps on the designated course in style as quickly as you can.***
Each competitor drinks four cans of beer and runs four laps around a 1/4 mile course (start with chugging a beer, then run a lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap - finish).
Beer must be consumed before the lap begins within the transition area. The transition area is the zone at the start/finish line for a mile race.
The race begins with competitors lined up on the mile starting line, drinking the first beer in the transition zone described in the step above. This ensures competitors cover a complete mile. Competitors can walk/move in the transition area while drinking, but all beer must be consumed in the transition area before setting off to run a lap.
Competitors must drink canned beer that is no less than 355mL (12 Oz) in volume, which is the standard can/bottle size in the USA and some other countries. The Root Beer Mile substitutes canned root beer.
