Beer City 10K

Beer City 10K is a 10K road race held in Asheville, US, in May. It sits inside a wider event that also offers a 5K and team relays, and it is timed to coincide with Asheville Beer Week.

Headquarters is New Belgium Brewing in the West River Arts District. Every distance is built from the same 5K out-and-back loop, which runs along the district's greenway and turns near French Broad River Park. Solo 10K runners simply cover that loop twice, while relay teams split the laps between them.

The atmosphere leans towards friends running together and celebrating the city's craft brewing reputation. Strollers are welcome on the course, but dogs are not, apart from approved service animals.
