Trails to Taps Relay 2018
Teams of 5-10 runners comprise this relay run which highlights two of Bellingham’s best assets – breweries and trail running. Each leg of the 30-mile course ends at a different brewery where runners receive four 4oz beer tickets. Teammates meet each other at the Finish Line Party to celebrate with all of the participating breweries. Raffles and a costume contest round out the after party fun.
