We are the Colorado Brewery Running Series™ and we run for beer!
Join us for the New Image Brewing 5k on August 17, 2024, for a 5k-ish, fun run event that starts and ends at this awesome taproom in Wheat Ridge. Run, walk, jog - whatever goes! Complete the course and celebrate with us and a FREE, local craft brew at the finish line.
Start windows will be available at 10:00 AM & 10:30 AM. Each runner/walker will need to start during their 30-minute start wave window. Please do not arrive at check-in more than 30 minutes before your selected start time begins.
Cross the finish line and celebrate! All participants receive:
- A FREE craft brew at the finish line
- Your choice of a collector’s pint glass or seasonal swag item from the Brewery Running Series
- Your chance to win sweet door prizes from the Colorado Brewery Running Series, our event sponsors, and the host brewery.
- Access to event festivities: live music, food trucks, local vendors, fun with our partners and sponsors, goodies, and giveaways
- And more!
Our mission is to be active, have fun and give back to our local community. Since our inaugural Colorado event in 2016, we have been able to donate over $140,000 back to local Colorado non-profits (with over $400k raised to date nationwide). This event will add to that tally! 10% of all proceeds go directly to a local organization that will be on site promoting their organization. So not only do you get to enjoy some healthy activity and great, local beer - you are helping us support local organizations that do important work in our community.
Registration is limited to the size of the taproom and many of our events sell out. Sign up today!
