From the Organizer
Join us for the 8th annual Longest Day 5k/10k and by special request we are keeping the .5k Beer run and .5k kids run. We are excited to continue doing this again and again and hope you are too.
By now we would hope the Beard vs Beans name is known, 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 that we both personally believe in. We compete to see which brother can raise the most money in donations for the Alzheimer's Association of San Antonio and South Texas. Loser faces a punishment. In our continued efforts to help ENDALZ we bring you The Longest Day 5k/10k with Beard vs Beans.
All 5k/10k finishers will receive medals and a pretty amazing shirt. The participants who want to do 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. Come join us and have a great time with our sponsors. As always. ALL proceeds will benefit the Alzheimer Association of San Antonio and South Texas.
Dont forget to create your team! The team with the most registered participants will earn a team flag. Deadline for this to happen will be June 1st 2026!

About This Sport
From Endurance Grid's Founder
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
The 10K is the distance where running stops feeling like a starting point and starts feeling like a sport. Long enough to require a real training block. Short enough that race day is fully manageable for a first-timer who's put in the work.
Race day energy at a 10K is community at its best — strangers cheering you by name, people moving toward the same goal, an atmosphere that solo training can't replicate. It's fast enough that you'll spend the whole race pushing rather than managing your effort.
This is also the distance that builds the base for everything else. Most athletes who go on to run half marathons, do triathlons, or compete in HYROX started here. What you need: running shoes fitted to your stride, a training plan, and the race on your calendar. The registration is what makes the deadline real.
How long to train: 4–8 weeks for most fitness levels.
Running
From 5K to marathon, running races are the most accessible entry point into endurance sport. There's a distance for every fitness level and a community at every start line.
