Candy Cane Course - Colorado Springs 2026

The Candy Cane Course in Colorado Springs, held at El Pomar Youth Sports Park, is a Christmas-themed running event. It is part of the annual Bodies Race Series and offers several distances: a 1-mile run, a 5k, a 12k, and a kid's dash for those 10 and under. The 1-mile and kid's dash are not timed, but the 5k and 12k use chip timing with live results and awards. The event is designed for families and casual runners alongside competitive racers. Registration provides a custom bib, a designer shirt, and a finisher medal. Participants also receive complimentary race photos and post-race treats. Youth pricing is available for the 5k and 12k, and a virtual option allows participation for those who wish to receive the shirt and medal without attending in person.
