About the ONtoberfest 5K
The route runs through Hattiesburg and finishes at Southern Prohibition, a local craft brewery hosting an Oktoberfest party. The course is a straightforward road run with no particular terrain to worry about, and the finish line drops you right into the party rather than a parking lot.
Cold beer from Southern Prohibition is waiting when you cross, along with a DJ and Oktoberfest festivities. The whole event is set up to roll directly into a brewery party, so most people stick around after rather than heading straight to their cars.
