Bockfest 5K

 Steps off at 10AM from Bockfest Hall
You’ll run for beer? Then we have the perfect event for you! The Annual Bockfest 5K happens Saturday morning at 10A, March 5th, right in the middle of Bockfest Weekend! Run (or walk) past some of the historic brewery sites throughout OTR, then celebrate your finish with a cold one at Bockfest Hall as the Bockfest party gets started early with food, music and lots of fun! Proceeds support the Brewery District and the Brewing Heritage Trail. Remember, the Bockfest 5K is part of the TQL Beer Series, so if you want to be a Brew Hog, you need to do all three events (Bockfest 5K, Little Kings Mile, Hudepohl 14K or 7K). Get your series started at the Bockfest 5K! Sign up today at www.bockfest5k.com​.
