Benefiting Manna House
Get ready to lace up your sneakers and join us for the 27th Annual Spirit's 5K & Beer Mile – where fitness meets fun! This year's race starts and finishes at Spirits, taking you on a scenic sprint through the stunning Historic Garden District.
But wait, there's more! After you cross that finish line, stick around for an epic finishing party complete with delicious food, refreshing drinks, and amazing fellowship with your favorite people. Whether you're running for speed or running for the party (we don't judge!), this is the event you won't want to miss.
Packet Pickup will be at Spirits on Race Day (Saturday) from 12:00 pm to 1:45 pm. 1 mile starts at 2 pm, 5K at 2:00, with a beer mile to follow at 3 pm.
