New 30-Minute Documentary: Beer Run

ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA -- Part drinking, part social event and part fitness, hashing is a beer soaked rite that brings people together from all walks of life from college students in their 20's to business professionals in their 70's to run, jog, walk or even crawl on designated trails that lead to beer, beer, and more beer. Around the world, over 200,000 hashers escape the rat race to join in on the run, and with each passing year, the ranks of these beer guzzlers swells. "Beer Run" is a 30-minute documentary that takes you along for a mad dash from one watering hole to the next with a rowdy "drinking group with a running problem".
