The first Maovember BeerActive event brought health-minded individuals together for a workout with beer kegs last Thursday at BActive, followed by some celebratory brews at Slow Boat. The participants used the kegs for presses, for squats and as a base for pushups while they worked up a sweat before cooling down with a few beverages. The event raised rmb1,300 for Maovember.

BActive is also a sponsor of Mike Wester’s 30-day, 900-km “mao-a-thon“.
