Travel. Run. Brew.

Cinco de Mayo Run-cation, Destination Saint Arnold Brewing Company.

Apr 08, 2016 | By Sharon Lindberg


Things are heating up in Texas and longer distance races are approaching the rear view mirror as the mercury is on the rise. But don’t let that stop you from training! 
 
Here’s a thirst quenching opportunity to keep running, racing and combine a bit of travel with a hops-happy destination; with a spicy themed 5K that will have you doing the Mexican hat dance at the post race fiesta, hosted by Saint Arnold Brewing & Whole Foods.
 
Destination…Santo de Mayo 5K presented by the University of Houston Downtown and hosted at Saint Arnold Brewing Company — Texas’ Oldest Craft Brewery this one will have you saying Ole!
 
So just head on down I-45 and in a few hours you land. All that’s needed is an overnight bag, sombrero, maracas and your ticket to the start line.
 
Correr por la cerveza! (Run for the beer for you gringos.) At the finish line be sure to grab bragging rights with the commemorative custom branded finisher pint glass then saunter over to the event area for live music, three Saint Arnold brews and juicy treats served up by our sponsors including Whole Foods and Texas Tamale Company.
