Welcome back to running for 2015!

Hello to all Beer Runners and Future Beer Runners,

Welcome back for 2015!  We have had a great winter keeping it alive, albeit without the running, but now that things seems to finally be thawing enough and the sun likes us more and more, it's time to change that.  So, without further ado, we are back to 7PM and we are back to running!

I do hope to encourage more new runners to join us this year, we have a fantastic core of anywhere from 12-25 every week, and love getting to see new faces.  So please, head to Tam Tams on Wednesdays, find the group full of Red & Gold Beer Runner T-Shirts ($20, limited stock still available), and come see why we keep doing this crazy thing and love it after many, many years.

Cheers!

Greg

T-Shirts, Photos, and other General Annoucements

Hello Everyone,

We've been having another stellar summer, and no doubt our new T-Shirts are helping to turn heads each and every run.  There are plenty of shirts left for sale, and only $20 each.  If you want one shoot me a message @ greg.illson@gmail.com or by leaving a comment here or on our facebook page.  I will bring limited numbers of shirts to each run, so to be sure I have the right colour and size for you tell me in advance.

I am also noticing that we are a group that still can do more to raise our profile.  I am putting a new challenge out to all members and friends to come take more and better pictures of us.  We're such a beautiful group but no one will ever know it without pictures!

Otherwise if you are someone who has simply stumbled onto this page and have no clue what is going on, I encourage you to take the leap and come meet us at Tam Tams any Wednesday at 7pm to find out.  If you're a fan of beer at all this is the club for you.

Wow February Already!!! T-Shirts in Progress

Hello Everyone,

Hard to believe we're already a month into the new year.  Glad to be seeing so many new and old faces for the last little while, and let's hope it keeps going regardless of whatever the weather might bring us.  For those that have not seen you need to head to the Facebook page to see the T-Shirt designs and get your pre-orders in!  Working on the specifics of the shirts now but expect them to be ready well before we hit the roads again.

See you  at the bar soon!

Special Thursday Run with Fishtown Beer Runners

So I am very excited to announce that some members of the original beer runners, the Fishtown Beer Runners, will be joining us in Montreal for Labor  Day weekend.  As a result, we have organized an additional special run Thursday evening for the whole group to join up and mingle.  It's also a great way to burn some additional calories and prep for a weekend trip to Chambly for their annual beer festival.  Be on the lookout for an MBR organized trip on the weekend there.

Happy Canada Day- July runs are up!

Hello my Canadians and non-Canadians alike (yes, there are plenty of both that show up),

Happy of happiest Monday's, a great holiday weekend in typically the most fun month of the year.  We look forward to holding our end of the bargain in that expectation for this month with 5, yes 5, awesome destinations.  Come see every corner of the city, and even venture into parts typically overlooked for some of the best beers, and best people.

We hope to see you at 7, and we'll hold off the rain like we did all of June.

Announcements May 28th: Mondiale 2013, CNN Write-up on the Hash House Harriers

This week's run is still Benelux downtown, but a secondary event is on for Friday evening for anyone that wants to go to check out the Mondiale de la biere, which starts Wednesday but will not be the destination, unless people wish to go afterwards.  Friday anyone who is interested in going should come Wednesday to determine the best time and meeting place for everyone.

Also saw this on CNN's homepage, nice article highlighting the fun of the HHH, but as you'll read in the article there's a bit more going on there than a run and some beers.  If you're interested there is a Montreal chapter that I have a link to below the link for the article.

Woohoo May! We love the weather

Well I think it's time we deserved a week like this, great looking weather keeping in the low 20's is really going to be perfect for our runs the next couple of weeks.  To celebrate the fact, we have assembled a month full of our favorite destinations, including a few great terraces. 

We've been very excited by our growth already this year, and continue to invite all runners and new people to the city looking for a great social club to join us.  Remember, there's no obligation to run as far or as fast as anyone else, the beer you drink at the end will taste the same no matter what.

September Runs Are Up- Other Announcements

Hello Fellow Runners:

We have some big changes going on with the club, and I'm not just talking about the weather outside.

1. Following the Lance Armstrong run where there was definitely some new interest among those who did not know us before, we decided there's no better time for a run to Benelux in a "Choose Your Own Adventure" run, where everyone can choose their own distance to go, seeing as the destination is so close.

2. September 12- There is a significant event that many of the club will attend that is in no way related to Beer Running sadly, so I have not chosen a location, though anyone who still wants to take up the standard and find something is more than welcome.

3. Runs are now officially moved up to 7PM starting this month as the sunlight is fading away quickly on us.  This is however in now way a sign that the club will be closing shop any time soon, we aim to run until the threat of our beer being frozen waiting for us as the bar is a distinct possibility.

4.  If you haven't yet, make sure to join the facebook page for more info, announcements, and silliness related to beer and running.

Beneluxxxxxxx!!!

Well once again the Bacchus must be shining his light on Montreal as it'll be another perfect evening for a Beer Run.  To make it even better, it's a Choose Your Own Adventure run, as Benelux is one of the easiest destinations for a beer run we've chosen yet.  While it's a recommended 5k (just click the link on the right), you can go anywhere from 1-15k if you like, it's just that easy!  Top it off with some of the best beers in the city and a monstrous terrace; there's no better way to enjoy a night like this in Montreal!
