BrewRunners of Cincinnati

Spring 2026 Half & full Marathon Training

One thing we know is this: running and local beer go hand in hand. We are here to bring that experience together for you!

Come join the most social run club in Cincinnati! The BrewRunners of Cincinnati are distance runners with a passion for inclusivity, our lovely city, and our local, craft beer scene. Socializing is just as important to us as the running! All skill levels (paces) are welcome, including ruckers.

This spring, we are offering a 15-week half marathon training program AND a 17-week full marathon training program. Both programs will culminate with us racing the Flying Pig on Sunday, May 3rd.
