Flying Otter’s 5K Wine Run graphic

Registration is Open for the Flying Otter Wine Run 5K!

Join us on August 1 at 4 PM for our annual Flying Otter 5K Wine Run, set among the beautiful scenery of Flying Otter Vineyard & Winery. Enjoy a friendly, unintimidating wine experience featuring our hand-crafted, vine-to-bottle Michigan estate wines.

The race begins and ends at the Tasting Room/Pavilion and follows a mostly grass course through the vineyard, scenic property, and forest paths. It may not be the fastest course for a PR, but it’s one of the most fun 5Ks around. Runners and walkers are welcome.

The race is timed and scored by J3 Timing, with results posted at www.J3Timing.com.

Participants must be 21+ to receive wine. Those under 21 or without a valid ID will receive water or soda instead. Arrive early (3 PM) for packet pickup, fueling up, and stretching before the 4 PM start.

Registration includes:
  • Cool t-shirt
  • Collapsible wine glass
  • Wine-shaped finisher medal
  • Race bib with chip-timed 5K
  • Results posted online
  • ...and a pour of wine! 🍷
