Gulf Blvd Marathon Bar Crawl

When: Sunday July 3, 2022

What: It’s a marathon bar crawl. Literally.

26+ miles of running/drinking down Gulf Blvd.

You can run, bike, or ride Arley’s bus!

Don’t want to drive out there? No problem!

Meet us at the Outback parking lot on 60 in Brandon (right by the I-75 ramp). Arley’s bus leaves at 9:30am.

Just want to be clear, this is not an official event.

No entry fees. No free t-shirts. Just something fun to do.

The timeline for the day (assuming a 10 min mile pace):

  • Run 30 minutes.
  • Rest and drink beer/water for 30 min.
  • Rinse and repeat 11 times.

That puts the total to about 5 hours of running and 5 hours of drinking. You’re welcome.

Feel free to come for the whole thing, or just meet up somewhere along the way.

We’ll be checking in on fb at each stop so you can see where we’re at.

Hope to see you there!
