Takao Beer to host morning run event "52Run + Morning Beer" on July 11
Takao Beer in Hachioji, Tokyo will host a morning group run called "52Run + Morning Beer" on July 11. The roughly 8 km Takudai Ridge loop is expected to take about two hours, and participants will receive a complimentary post-run beer.
Hop BroThere’s a story that makes Takao morning sound pretty great: Takao Beer is hosting 52Run + Morning Beer on July 11.
MugiWait, you run before drinking? Morning run and beer is an aggressively energetic combo!
Hop BroThe venue is Takao Beer’s taproom inside KO52 TAKAO, just a two-minute walk from Takao Station’s south exit. Meet at 8:45, then do about 8 km on the Takudai Ridge loop over roughly two hours, and it’s beginner-friendly.
MugiOhhh, easy for beginners means even someone like me, whose face gets tired before my legs, might survive!
Hop BroAnd they’ve got solid support setup too: you can leave your bags, there’s a changing space, and the manager from Stride Lab Takao on the fourth floor will guide the run.
MugiHold on, what was that thing you almost said, glycogen management? Why did this suddenly become a science class?
Hop BroIt sounds fancy, but it’s basically fuel in your tank. They’re also handing out limited VFUEL nutrition samples, so the event is built for running properly and recovering properly.
MugiGot it, anti-bonk strategy! And after the finish line there’s free post-run beer waiting? That reward system is way too powerful.
Hop BroExactly. This one isn’t about announcing a specific beer name or style, it’s about enjoying a morning pint, and Takao Beer also serves breakfast from 7:00 a.m.
MugiSo you run, get the view, then drink... that’s basically the perfect Takao morning. I can already taste the fresh air.
Hop BroA sweaty finish at the foot of Mount Takao followed by one morning beer sounds good enough to make my throat react already.
MugiThen the verdict is clear: July 11 is for run first, cheers later. This article fully talked me into wanting that beer.
Takao Beer, a small local brewery at the foot of Mt. Takao that has been run by local residents since 2017, is adding an early-day twist to its running community. The brewery and taproom sits inside KO52 TAKAO, about a two-minute walk from the south exit of Takao Station, and normally hosts group runs on Friday nights.
This special edition, titled `52Run + Morning Beer`, is scheduled for Saturday, July 11 at 8:45 a.m. Participants will meet on the 2nd floor of KO52 TAKAO before heading out. The planned route centers on the Takudai Ridge loop, roughly 8 km in total and about two hours long, with the brewery describing it as beginner-friendly. Bags can be left at Takao Beer, and a changing space will be available.
On the day, the event will be guided by the manager of Stride Lab Takao, the outdoor shop on the 4th floor of the same building. A limited number of VFUEL sample packs will also be handed out. After the run, participants can expect the usual complimentary "post-run beer." Takao Beer also serves morning service from 7:00 a.m., making it a place where people can stop in for a walk, a book, or a relaxed start to the day.
