10K-Läufe in der Nähe von Severance

At Toy Drop, runners bring a new, unwrapped toy to the start line before choosing a 5K, 10K, or 15K in Loveland, Colorado. The race is held around Christmas time, starts and finishes at Berthoud Brewing, and also offers virtual versions of the same three distances. The 5K and 15K start at 9 a.m., with the 10K following five minutes later. The route uses Loveland city roads and bike paths, including parts of town the organizers say they had not highlighted before this race. The toy donation and race proceeds support Realities for Children, a Larimer County organization serving children who have suffered abuse, neglect, homelessness, or other at-risk situations. Realities for Children provides emergency funds, necessary items, activities, and outreach through partner agencies, and its model is backed by more than 250 local business members.

Lucky Brew is a St. Patrick’s-themed race day on the Great Western Trail in Severance, Colorado, offering 5K, 10K, 15K, half marathon, and Kids Fun Run options. All distances start and finish at Severance Community Park, accommodating runners seeking an early-season test and families attending the shorter kids’ event. The 5K follows a 0.6-mile loop within Severance Park, while longer races extend beyond the park onto the trail. Finishers receive chip timing, photos, and a performance shirt. The post-race meal includes corned beef, cabbage, coffee, energy drinks, beer, seltzer, non-alcoholic drinks, and green beer from Peculier Brewing Company. Overall winners get custom clay mugs, age-group leaders receive gift cards, and half marathon finishers are awarded a medal. The event benefits the Great Western Trail Foundation and other local nonprofits, and it is one of four run.Windsor races qualifying for BOLDERBoulder.

Der Colorado Marathon ist ein Straßenlauf in Fort Collins und findet meistens am ersten Maiwochenende statt. Dort gibt's einen ganzen Marathon, einen Halbmarathon, 10K, 5K und auch einen Kinderlauf. Der Marathon startet früh am Morgen und zieht Tausende Läufer an, von Locals, die die kürzeren Strecken laufen, bis hin zu Marathonis, die eine neue Bestzeit oder die Boston Marathon Quali anpeilen. Die Marathonstrecke führt die meiste Zeit durch den Poudre River Canyon, bevor sie dann durch die Naturgebiete von Fort Collins geht und in der Stadt endet. Die Strecke geht hauptsächlich bergab, was viele anzieht; in den ersten vier Jahren haben 18% der Teilnehmer eine Boston Marathon Quali geschafft. Ursprünglich hieß der Lauf Fort Collins Old Town Marathon. Das Event hat immer noch einen starken lokalen Bezug, auch durch die Charity-Startplätze, die teurer sind und deren Erlös an lokale Wohltätigkeitsorganisationen geht.
