Sunday Runday Coffee & Brew Club
Backstory Coffee Roasters x Wabasha Brewing Company
Sunday, June 21

Join us in St. Paul for a Sunday Runday built for all brew lovers — whether your go-to is a perfectly pulled espresso or a crisp pint. This 5K-ish fun run brings together two local favorites: Backstory Coffee Roasters and Wabasha Brewing Company.

Backstory is known for its intentional, small-batch roasting and thoughtful approach to coffee — a space rooted in craft, quality, and community. Right next door, Wabasha Brewing Company has built a reputation for easy-drinking, approachable beers and a laid-back taproom that feels like a neighborhood staple. Together, it’s the kind of pairing that just works — and the perfect setting to kick off your Sunday.

This event is part of our Sunday Runday Coffee & Brew Club — a series designed to bring people together around movement, connection, and the shared love of great beverages.


Event Details

When: Sunday, June 21 | Start time: 10:00 AM

Why This One Hits

This is what Sundays should look like — a little movement, a lot of connection, and something good in your hand at the finish. Whether you’re a runner, walker, or just here for the vibes, this event is designed to be approachable, social, and rooted in local flavor.

A portion of proceeds supports local nonprofits. To date, we’ve raised more than $700,000 to give back to communities.
