Oktoberfest Run - Centennial
The Oktoberfest Run takes place at Piney Creek Hollow Park, 6140 South Tower Road, Centennial, CO, on September 26, 2026. The event is organized as a smaller, private group run with a cap per wave and an option to join a virtual run or a wait list if in-person waves fill.
Distance options include:
- 5K
- 10K
- Half Marathon 13.1
- Virtual run option
- Family 1 Mile
The event uses a wave-based start system filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. Timing is optional; participants may track time with an app and submit results, or ask coordinators to help record times. The event does not use timing chips.
Race packets do not require separate pickup. Swag is shipped to the US mailing address provided at registration, and race bibs are provided on race day. Participants receive items that may include a running T-shirt, a finisher towel or giveaway, a finisher medal, and a digital training pack. Technical running shirts are available as an optional upgrade for an additional fee.
Organizers send a final update with course maps the week before the race. Late registrations are accepted but mailed shirts may arrive after the event. The virtual run includes a digital training pack and allows submission of results to receive a medal. The event supports optional fundraising and related charity initiatives.
