The Arkansas State Championship Beer Mile will take over Magnolia Street between 4th Street and Bishop Lindsey Avenue (7th Street) in Argenta. Runners will start in the chug zone just outside Funky Stretch Pizza, finish beer number one, then head north onto a tight oval course designed for fast racing, hard left turns and great spectator views.
After completing each lap, runners will cross the start/finish line, re-enter the chug zone and grab their next beer. Four beers. Four laps. One mile. You know the drill.
COME EARLY. STAY LATE.
Funky Stretch Pizza will be open throughout the event with great food, cold beverages and indoor and outdoor seating, making it the perfect home base to pre-game, watch the action or recover after your mile.
Ample public parking is available nearby, with parking areas accessible from 6th Street and Bishop Lindsey Avenue. There will be one designated course crossing near 6th Street to help spectators move from one side of the course to the other without interfering with the race.
For the safety of runners, spectators and event staff, dogs are not allowed at the event.
Study the map. Find your spot. And remember the only two directions that matter:
DRINK BEER. TURN LEFT.
