Run Denver 'Mile High City' 5K/10K/13.1 is a local Denver running event offering 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances, taking place in late November.

The atmosphere is intentionally relaxed. Bibs are distributed on race day, participant gifts are mailed out, and organizers can record times by bib number upon request. Waves begin in the morning and are filled sequentially, with a waitlist or virtual run offered once capacity is reached. Participants receive a shirt, medal, and entry into a virtual runner community; the virtual option also includes text-based coaching support prior to the run.

The event welcomes families, friends, and local runners, not exclusively competitive athletes. The core idea is to enjoy the outdoors with others, complete a manageable distance, and burn calories before the Thanksgiving meal.
