Run Denver 'Mile High City' 5K/10K/13.1 2026

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. It functions more like a supported group run than a large race: each wave is limited to approximately 15 to 20 participants, both runners and walkers are accepted, and timing chips are not used. 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.
