Rahr Brewing Company Oktoberfest 5K Social Run/Walk - August
About this race
Get ready to squeeze the most out of summer at the Rahr Oktoberfest 5K Social Run/Walk – August Edition! This month we celebrate a summer favorite - lemon with sunny vibes, refreshing miles, and the perfect post-run reward: a crisp citrusy shandy. Whether you’re chasing the pace crew or strolling with friends, this social run/walk is all about cooling down, having fun, and raising a glass to summer survival. Gather your crew and join us for an morning of movement, fun, and ice-cold brews that prove when life gives you lemons, you make a shandy. It’s your monthly training run for the big Oktoberfest 5K — because around here, we run thirsty and celebrate every mile.
Social Run Includes: 3ish mile run/walk (untimed), led by our world-famous BEER PACERS, two (2) Rahr Brewing Company draft beers (must be 21+), pint glass, and breakfast tacos courtesy of That Taco Dude!
