Running 26 miles might seem a bit unpleasant but what if there was a beer waiting for you at each mile? The Beerathon is an event where runners run a 26 mile route through the city with 26 local bars handing out a brew to each participant. The race is a little more laid back than your average marathon and is meant to be more of a good time than a competition, with no pressure on actually finishing. Bands will often perform and non-runners will hang out and drink anyways.
They already have had this event in New York and Boston, but in March the event will be coming to Los Angeles. Read more here.
