Adventure Club - Black Out Friday - 2024

Black Out Friday started in 2014 as a way to get some miles in and to support each of the local breweries in Charlotte, NC the day after Thanksgiving. 11 years later, the route, breweries, and beers have changed, but the loosely organized gathering of craft beer and running lovers has remained steady over the years.

The theme for the 2024 was "10ish years, 10ish beers, 10ish miles, endless smiles" and the rag tag crew of urban adventurers did exactly that! Each beautiful human also took a turn being a proud HPM Adventure Flag Bearer between brewery stops throughout the day.
