5k Fun Run x Urban Growler Brewing Co | 2026 MN Brewery Running Series

We are the Minnesota Brewery Running Series® and we run for beer! 🏃‍♂️🍻

Join us for a 5K-ish fun run at Urban Growler Brewing Co. on Saturday, May 9 - fun run starts from the taproom at 11:00 AM

This route is a standout. The course winds through the surrounding St. Paul neighborhoods and right into the heart of the ChromoZone mural district, featuring bold, large-scale street art from local and international artists — think vibrant colors, massive walls, and nonstop visual interest from start to finish. It’s one of those runs where you’ll want to slow down just to take it all in. 🎨🏃‍♀️

Whether you’re running, jogging, or walking, this event is open to all ages and fitness levels. Enjoy an urban, art-filled route, then stick around to celebrate with your fellow runners back at the brewery. 🎉
