The Orthopaedic Rehab Specialists Oktoberfest 10K/5K and Kids Superhero Run is a fall race day held at Consumer's Plaza in downtown Jackson, Michigan. The start and finish are located in front of the old post office, which is now Consumers Energy headquarters. The event offers adults a 10K run, 5K run, or 5K walk, and children 10 and under can participate in the Kids Superhero Run. The course is designed using the best sections from previous races and is professionally timed by the Michigan Running Foundation. The children's run embraces the superhero theme, encouraging costumes and providing a goodie bag, a finisher medal keychain, and a free scoop of ice cream from RJ's Burgers & Ice Cream. Participants in the 5K and 10K races receive a shirt, a finisher medal, and a $10 certificate for downtown Jackson businesses.
