Join us for the 2025 Oktoberfest 5-Miler presented by Altra in Howard County! Celebrate this fall tradition with great swag and an awesome post-race party at Black Flag Brewing Co.! A portion of the race proceeds benefit Bridges to Housing Stability in Howard County.
This race begins at Charm City Run Columbia and then ventures around Lake Elkhorn, crossing several wooden bridges with scenic water views, shady autumn foliage and features a festive finish line.
After you hit the finish line the party starts! Runners can enjoy a complimentary beer (ages 21+) as well as beer for purchase. Plenty of post-race snacks to enjoy. Hang out, enjoy the music, shop our CCR Mobile Store, and celebrate with friends!
