Have a Drink on Me 5K at SingleCut North Brewery
The Have a Drink on Me 5K is a chip-timed, USATF-certified race that starts and finishes at SingleCut North Brewery in Clifton Park, NY. The paved course passes through scenic neighborhood streets and features minimal elevation changes, making it a flat and fast route.
The course is supported with a water stop roughly halfway, and finish-line water and snacks are provided. Official results are available via chip timing and posted online after the race.
Finish line activities include live music, food trucks, yard games, a stein hoist competition with proceeds to charity, and a family-friendly festival atmosphere. Every runner aged 21 or older receives a ticket for a complimentary SingleCut beer; additional beer is available for purchase. Registered participants receive custom race swag, including high-performance socks and a custom koozie. Teams of ten or more receive upgraded swag, and solo runners can access team perks by making a specified donation during registration.
The event supports Helping Hands Academy & Nursery School, an inclusive preschool serving children aged 2 to 5 across about 16 area school districts. A portion of race proceeds and donations go to Helping Hands; the event previously raised $10,000 for the organization.
Packet pickup is offered the day before the race and on race morning at SingleCut North Brewery. Parking is available in nearby business park lots with overflow at Northway Church. Awards are given in 10-year age groups and to the top three male and female finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
