Run TO Fairweather (Hamilton!)

Run TO Fairweather Brewing Company
RunTOBeer is heading back to Hamilton! Known for having one of the best craft beer scenes and a vibrant running culture, there’s no better reason to leave Toronto for the first weekend of fall.

Our route will take us along tree-lined rail trails, quiet streets, and through the bustling McMaster campus, leading back to Fairweather Brewing Company. For nearly a decade, Fairweather has led the Hamilton beer scene, producing everything from crisp pilsners, to fruity sours, bold stouts, and juicy IPAs. For those who like to run and talk about beer at the same time, we’ll be joined on our run by head brewer Thomas Bancic, one of the people responsible for all of these great beers.

Bag drop is available at the brewery starting at 10:45 am.

This is a free event. 10K, 5K and 3K overlapping running routes.
All paces are welcome. And as always, assholes are not.

Toronto runners: the best way to get to Hamilton from Toronto is GO Transit. The 8:30 or 9:30 am route 16 buses from Union Station Bus Terminal will both get you to Hamilton in time. The 8:47 am train works too, but takes a bit longer. Return trains and buses run all day. Don’t forget to buy a $10 unlimited weekend GO pass!

We realize plans change, so please cancel your ticket if you’re no longer attending. Registration helps us give breweries/brewpubs numbers for staffing, etc. Also, for sold-out runs, runners on waitlists would appreciate your spot if you cannot come!

We are a family-friendly run community, and no matter your age, you can come run with us! BUT, we do ask that only runners 19+ sign up for a spot, with a unique name and email address; this is so that we can let the brewery/brewpub know how many beers to pour, etc. After enjoying your free beer, please make sure to tip your servers generously. Stay for another, and get some refuel (if our venue is serving food!) – supporting our partners will make sure we continue to get support from them! You can also support by tagging @runtobeer and our participating partners on your IG and FB posts. Lastly, if you are bringing a furry runner, make sure you double-check with the venue whether they can accommodate!

IMPORTANT!
Please remember to follow traffic signals/signs. Be safe out there – we want you back for the beers! You are about to release RUNTOBEER, and everyone else involved in this run, from any and all responsibility for anything negative that may occur. Do not join this event unless you are willing to assume 100% of the risks. If you are an asshole, please stay home.
