HRCA Oktoberfest 5K

HRCA Oktoberfest 5K

Put on your lederhosen and sneakers as we kick-start the annual Highlands Ranch Community Association's Oktoberfest in Town Center with the Oktoberfest 5K! This course is a mixture of both sidewalk and gravel trails and is well-suited for all ability levels. After the race, plan to stick around for a pancake breakfast from Flippin Flapjacks', free beer from Living the Dream Brewery (21+), and post-race fun! Come back later in the afternoon to get your polka on, enjoy German food, and other HRCA Oktoberfest activities.

As part of the "Kettlebell Cash" Series, we will be hiding a blue kettlebell out on course worth $100 to whomever finds it and brings it back to the finish!

The race begins at 9:00 am sharp. Please arrive with ample time to park, find the starting line, and get warmed up!
