Let's Activate Beer!
Welcome to Activate Beer! We are a community of people that have an equal appreciation for a tasy beer and staying active. The goal of this site is simple; as a community we are going to try to run and/or ride 1,000,000 miles by International Beer Day, August 8th, 2012.
How Do We Do It?
Drink beer and run or go for a ride; it's really that simple! However you'll need a way to track these miles that are adding up, so we have powered our site using Dailymile and Untappd. What this means is that you will log your workouts on Dailymile and your beer enjoyment on Untappd. The only catch is that in order for the miles you rack up to count, you need to share your beverage of choice on Untappd on the same calendar day as your workout. The order of the beverage and workout is up to you.
To join the community, click the button below to Register. Once you register and get your Dailymile and Untappd accounts linked to the site, Activate Beer will start adding your miles! We are still working through the final kinks to get all of the miles counted and once we have that complete Activate Beer will keep you posted on your awesomeness.
Why?
This site was started in the hopes that Actviate Beer could help other people start and/or maintain their own active lifestyle without thinking that they need to give up beer. Our inspiration comes from people like Tim Cigelske (aka The Beer Runner) and individuals like him who show that it is possible to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle, while still enjoying a tasty brew.
