SHIRTS ARE IN!!! COME GET THEM TONIGHT!

I won't be here next week, so I could find a way to get them to next week's run but it would be better if you come today. I'll even have the extras with me for sale if you didn't pre-order.

Bar Change- T-shirt Update and More

Hi Everybody,

We've had an awesome turnout already here in April even with the terrible weather, so for those of you waiting to see if this thing is real or not you gotta come check it out yourself.

Because we're getting so big I decided we needed to change up from Yer Mad, especially since there isn't really any food there, so Brutopia it is.

Also, we may, *may* get the T-shirts in for Wednesday.  If so, we will distribute immediately.  If not, I will probably have them later this week and will bring them along for next Wednesday as well.  If you want it before then just ask me and I'll work something out.

Also, if anyone is interested the Half & Full Marathon rates are going up on Thursday, so if you want to save a few bucks and commit now here's the link.  http://ca.competitor.com/montreal/inscription.

Here's another link for anyone that really wants to become an ultimate beer runner.  http://www.craftbrewraces.com/stowe/.  Yes, that's right, running directly into a beer festival.  I'll be going, and I'm sure there will be more cars headed down as well so book off June 14th on your calendar today.

Last call for shirt pre-orders

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to give fair notice here that I will order the T-shirts as of Monday, so if you do not even fill out the google form (I will attach the link one more time below), I will not guarantee that I will have a shirt for you in your size or preferred color. This way we should have the shirts (I hope) for the April 23rd run to Brasserie Cherrier, one of our favorite destinations.

Almost ready to Start Running and T-SHIRTS!!!

Alright everyone, it's that time again but for real now. T-SHIRTS ARE COMING, AND FOR ONLY $20! I finally got the samples of the shirts today, and they are a nice 50% cotton 50% polyester blend dry wick material. I actually prefer this for two reasons. 1. It's Montreal and sometimes 100% polyester in the summer or on a cold night is disaster and 2. It actually becomes a shirt that can be worn for other things besides running (for those that are still anxious about that part of things).

So here is the link to the pre-order below: This is the only way to guarantee that I buy your size. While I do anticipate buying extras it won't be a lot so it will be at your own risk. To give people guidance I fit the MEDIUM best and Lauren seemed to do well with a SMALL. Money in advance is also greatly appreciated since as most of you know I do have a wedding to start planning for.

I should see everyone Wednesday later in the evening too if there are any more questions.

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!

Happy 2014, We're Back and better than ever!

Hello All,

Welcome back, sorry for the 2 week hiatus for the holidays, but now that the weather has (hopefully) settled a bit and our life routines are getting back into place, we will pick up right where we left off. 

Of course, naturally, that means that we will get right back into it with a brew pub and a local favorite bar to start with 3 Brasseurs near McGill College (on St. Catherine) and Grumpy's on Bishop (block over from Crescent).  For the regulars it will be a great way to welcome each other back, and for the new members who made us their new year's resolution (there should be many more of you!), we look forward to having our running/drinking family back together.

End of Running Season, check the sideboard for new details

So looking at Wednesday's weather I'm gonna go ahead and officially call it now........we have hit the end of running season.

We are now simply the Montreal Beer Drinkers (name can be tweaked), meaning that we will simply be meeting at our destination bars at 8:30 rather than running at 7. Destinations to come tonight.

Important Notice regarding Brasserie Cherrier!

FYI people, it's also CASH ONLY for the BEER, it's a strange place where the food and beer are technically two separate businesses, therefore we get two bills for the end of the night.
