About this race

The event that put Dusty Bottoms (and dare we say Modesto) on the map is back!!

The Beer Mile is 5280 feet of pure awesomeness. Chug a beer, run a lap, repeat!
There are many races that define a runner. We promise you will never be the same after this one! 

* This race is run in "heats" that go on throughout the day.  We don't post these, so you need to be on the course by 10 to ensure that you don't miss your spot.
