Event Overview
The Rahr & Sons Oktoberfest 5K Social Run/Walk is a community event held at the Flying Saucer in Fort Worth. This monthly gathering serves as a social training installment to prepare participants for the annual autumnal Rahr Brewing Oktoberfest 5K. The event takes place regardless of weather conditions, following a rain or shine policy.
Course Information
Participants follow a route through the downtown area. The event is designated as a social run and walk rather than a formal race. Key features of the course include:
- 5K (approximately 3 miles)
The course is untimed, and public roads remain open to traffic during the activity. Participants can choose to follow beer pacers who lead the group through the route.
Participation and Atmosphere
The event is open to various fitness levels and paces. Dogs are permitted in the outdoor communal patio areas provided they are on a leash and have appropriate tags. Children in strollers may also participate.
Registration includes two draft beers for those aged 21 and over, a custom pint glass, and breakfast tacos provided by a local vendor. A portion of the registration fee is donated to Rahr to the Rescue, an organization focused on animal adoption and overpopulation awareness. Following the run/walk, the schedule includes organized games and raffles. All registrations are handled digitally through a cashless and paperless system.
