Beer City Run, Howl-O-Ween Pet Parade Coming To City Center

SAN RAMON, CA — City Center Bishop Ranch is hosting two events on Oct. 26: one for running, the other for trotting.

The Beer City Run will feature half marathon, 10k, and 5k races taking runners along scenic routes near Annabel Lake and the Iron Horse Trail. The half marathon race is the championship finale of the Beer City Half Northern California Series. The winner of the half marathon will win $5000 in total prize money, and the Golden Growler Award. A portion of the proceeds from the Beer City Run will go to Love & Second Chances animal rescue.

After the races, participants and guests are invited to attend the Beer City Festival, a celebration of East Bay craft beer featuring local brewers, live music, games, and food. Highlights include the Beat the Beast beer mile challenge, the Beermazing Race, and the Fieldwork Brewing Shindig party.

Howl-O-Ween

After the humans run, it's time for the dogs. At 2 p.m., dogs and their owners will strut their stuff through Alexander Square for the City Center Howl-O-Ween Costumed Pet Parade. Dogs will enjoy free treats from George, a Bay Area pet store, photo-ops at Halloween-themed selfie station, and a mini-obstacle course and ball pit sniff patch pop-up from The Hub by Pack Animals. Until 5 p.m., dogs can also enjoy haunted obstacle adventures, a supersized sniff patch, professional pet photography, and trick-for-treat training.
