Course notes and event rules are specific to each event. The Half Marathon loops Fiesta Island twice and then runs along the water and Bayfront. The 10k and 5k go along the water and Bayfront or waterfront. The Beer Stroll is a non-timed, one-mile course. The Beat the Beast Beer Mile requires drinking four 12-ounce beers with a 1/4 mile run between each drink, does not allow shotgunning, and eliminates participants who fail to complete the sequence.
