## Description

You wont want to miss the 10th annual Brat Trot 5k through Terre Haute&#39;s historical brewing district hosted by Immanuel Ev. Lutheran Church!

The Brat Trot has 2 awesome 5k races (the beer challenge 5k and regular 5k) and a 1 mile fun run for you to choose from!
                  
The main event is the Beer Challenge where participants will run our 1 mile loop course through the brewing district. At each lap you must consume a 4 ounce shot glass of beer and have the race volunteer place a check mark on your bib# before continuing on to your next lap. After 3 laps you will then cross the finish line and should have consumed a total of 12 ounces / 1 beer! All beer will be provided by Afterburner Brewing Company!

Parking will be located at the Vigo County Library&#39;s Parking lot. Please park in the back of the parking lot, so you do not interfere with those attending the Library. 1 Library Square, Terre Haute, IN 47807

Beer Challenge Rules
- You must be 21&#43; to participate. (IDs will be checked and participants in this race will receive a different bib# / non-removable bracelet)
          - NO ID; NO RACE
          - If you do not wear your bib# and/or do not have your 21&#43; identifying bracelet, you also will not be allowed to participate
          - No strollers are allowed in this event. Strollers are allowed in the non-beer Brat Trot 5K
- In order to be eligible for awards you must consume all 3 of the 4 ounce beers, and have a volunteer place a check mark on your bib# for each lap/beer. (You definitely do not have to consume all 3 drinks. Feel free to skip one if you do not want it. You just will not be eligible for awards.) 
- You can only consume 1 drink per lap

We also will have a non-beer Brat Trot 5k with all of the fun, but none of the course beer. This event is open to all ages. You will still complete 3 laps of our 1 mile course for your 5k. We will also have post-race awards for this event.
