About 15th annual Run to Remember 5K/10K and 0.5k Beer Run

This will be the 15th Annual Run to Remember 5k/10k and we are keeping the .5k Beer run and .5k kids run going as well. We are excited to be doing this again and hope you are too.

By now we would hope everyone knows what Beard vs Beans is, and if not, here's a little bit about us!

Sibling rivalry is something that everyone with a brother or sister is familiar with. My younger brother (Matthew aka Beard) and I (Miguel aka Beans) definitely know a thing or two about it. Together, we decided to put our competitive efforts toward a cause for a disease that has affected our family, Alzheimer’s!! Even in hard times our family has always been light hearted and fun, so with that, we compete to see which brother can raise the most money in donations for the Alzheimer's Association of San Antonio and South Texas. The Loser faces a punishment. In our continued efforts to help ENDALZ we bring you Run to Remember 5k/10k with Beard vs Beans.

All 5k/10k finishers will receive medals and an amazing shirt. The participants who want to partake in the .5k Beer Run will receive a beer mug and the winner will receive an award. You can chose to do the 0.5k Beer Run post 5k/10k and get all the swag. The Kids .5k will receive a medal and Shirt can be purchased separately. Come join us and have a great time with our family, run family and sponsors. As always, ALL proceeds will benefit the Alzheimer Association of San Antonio and South Texas.

Don't forget to create your team! The team with the most registered participants will earn their team name on the Race Day shirts. Deadline for this to happen will be April 16th 2027!
