It’s a unique way to get into the Halloween spirit - running the streets of Birmingham with the option to stop for a liquid break at area drinking establishments. That’s the idea behind this run sponsored by the Birmingham Track Club. They’re also encouraging participants to wear costumes, giving people several opportunities to win prizes. The awards are scheduled to be given away at Cosmo’s Pizza after the run.

If you don’t participate, don’t be surprised then if you see some of this year’s most popular costumes running beside you during the evening rush. And don’t forget your ID in case you plan on stopping in at the pubs during (or after) the race.

Cost: $0 (unless you’re planning to make the optional pub stops)

Location:

Storyteller Fountain, Five Points South (directions)
