We encourage you to get in the Halloween spirit and run, walk, jog, shuffle like a zombie - whatever goes! All ages, all levels are welcome. Complete the course and celebrate with us - enjoy a FREE, local Common John Brewing Co. craft brew at the finish line. Costumes are encouraged! A prize will be awarded for best dressed!
We created the route to start and end at the brewery and to show off the surrounding area including Historic Downtown Manchester, the Little Duck River Greenway and Old Stone Fort State Archeological Park. This is an open course, meaning roads will NOT be closed. You are responsible for obeying all traffic laws and regulations. The course will be marked with arrows and volunteers to help you know where to go. You must bring a valid ID or driver’s license. You do not need to be 21 to enjoy the event, but you must be 21 to enjoy the beer. Please drink responsibly. Registered, underage participants will receive a FREE non-alcoholic beverage.
Note - this is an open course, meaning the roads will NOT be closed.

Beneficiary
This year’s beneficiary is the Sportsman and Businessmen’s Charitable Organization. The Sportsmen & Businessmen's Charitable Organization has been in the business of giving help and support in a timely manner to those in need since the 1980's. It started when a small group of local business people felt the desire to help the many families in Coffee County who were in need. Presently, hundreds of supporters share the rewards of giving to others through this organization. Due to the commitment of volunteers and monetary contributions, our service area now extends into surrounding counties as well.
Sponsors
Special thanks to the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, Common John Brewing Co., Manchester Tourism, and Mach Tenn Running Club for their support.
