Nothing goes together better than running and beer.

Underachievers gathered at Round Guys Brewery Sunday afternoon for a day of glory and celebration to raise money for the Lansdale Freight House restoration, with the annual Frachthaus Zer0.5k race and Oktoberfest.

The event was promoted by Discover Lansdale as a fun, tongue-in-cheek event that will lampoon the typical 5k.

Entry to Oktoberfest at $5 per person went toward the restoration fund for Lansdale Freight House, eyed as a future event space and moneymaker for Discover Lansdale.

Check out the photos of the perfect-weather afternoon below.
