<H2>About the Race</H2>
Let’s consider this an “un-race” as it goes against many principles of other 5k races you may be familiar. This run isn't timed, and you will not get a medal when you finish. We also don’t close down any streets, but will make sure your route is safe and fun!

The run starts at 11:00 AM sharp! Please arrive 30 minutes before the start to get checked-in. Don’t forget some extra money! In addition to your FREE beer and swag, there will be merchandise for sale, food, and plenty more beer!

Look for our informational email closer to the event. We will remind you of these details and share anything else you might need to know.
Cheers to beer! We’ll see you at Ecliptic Brewing!
<H2>About Ecliptic Brewing</H2>
Located at the very southern end of the historic Mississippi Ave, Ecliptic brewing is the latest project of legendary Oregon brewmaster, John Harris. He is the guy behind some of our favorite Oregon beers.
After beginning as a brewer at McMenamins’ breweries, he moved to Deschutes where he created the recipes for Mirror Pond, Black Butte Porter, Jubelale and Obsidian Stout. He spent the next 20 years of his career as a Brewmaster at Full Sail in charge of creating the Brewmaster Reserve line of beers.
The name Ecliptic Brewing combines 2 of John’s passions, astronomy, and beer. At the restaurant and brewery, you’ll find all kinds of celestial imagery – from the lights to the partitions, and of course, the beer itself.
Ecliptic not only has an excellent beer selection but fantastic food as well.
