Hop BroKochi's Shimanto Brewing is putting out the second edition of its beer run event, which was well received last time.
MugiWait, you run and then drink!? So it's basically running x a toast!
Hop BroExactly. It's on Sunday, May 17, with everyone gathering at SHIMANTO Brewing at 10:00, warm-up exercises at 10:10, and the start at 10:15.
MugiThe schedule is surprisingly serious...! What are the courses like?
Hop BroThere are two courses, 13 km and 5 km, and both are set at a conversational pace of 7 to 8 minutes per km.
Mugi7 to 8 minutes per km... I can't tell if that's fast or slow! Is that a can-chat-while-running speed?
Hop BroThat's right. It's a pace where you won't get too out of breath. After the run, there will be a post-run gathering around 12:00, and it's reward time with beer.
MugiWow, amazing! And beer is 500 yen no matter how many you drink? I can't believe my ears!
Hop BroThey'll also have non-alcoholic drinks, so it's fine if you don't drink. It's thoughtful that they'll hold your bags too, except for valuables.
MugiAnd there's even Nakamura Onsen just a 10-minute walk away... running, drinking, and warming up all in one!
Hop BroYou can apply by DM, so it's casual. It feels like they're inviting both people who want to run and people who just want a drink.
MugiThis basically makes the reward guaranteed before you even start. If beer is waiting, I think I could run too!
Hop BroAll right, let's make toasting in Shimanto today's goal. Once we finish, let's have that drink properly.

There are two course options: 13 km and 5 km. Both are planned as comfortable runs at a conversational pace of 7 to 8 minutes per km.
