Oktoberfest Meiler Vier
The Oktoberfest Meiler Vier is a running event held in Columbus, Ohio, at the Ohio Expo Center. This race traditionally serves as the opening event for the Columbus Oktoberfest Festival. The event features a single distance for participants:
- 4 miles
The course is open to both runners and walkers, and the use of strollers is permitted. However, pets are not allowed on the course, with the exception of trained service animals.
Participants receive several items as part of their registration, including an event shirt and a finisher's medal. Following the completion of the four-mile distance, participants are provided with a complimentary beer and a sausage. Admission to the larger Columbus Oktoberfest Festival is free for all attendees.
Packet pick-up sessions are scheduled at Fleet Feet Sports Lewis Center in the days preceding the event. For those who collect their materials during these designated times at the Lewis Center, a complimentary parking pass for the festival is included. Alternatively, race day packet pick-up is available at the Ohio Expo Center. The event organizers utilize a flag warning system at re-fueling stations to communicate weather-related course conditions to all participants.
