Gare di 5K vicino a Milliken

PRA Miner Gold Rush is a school-year kickoff race and fall festival at Prospect Ridge Academy, featuring a 5K on campus in the morning and a 1-mile fun run afterward. The 5K corrals at 8:30 a.m. and starts at 9 a.m.; the shorter run begins at 10:30 a.m. The schedule shifted earlier due to afternoon thunderstorms impacting past events. The race day centers on the PRA community, drawing over 1,000 people to campus in a recent edition. The 5K also serves as a BOLDERBoulder qualifier, making it more than a casual school run for those aiming for a seeded start there. Following the running events, the Fall Festival takes place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the grass soccer field, offering ticket packages, family sponsorship levels, business sponsorships, and early festival access for families purchasing a sponsorship package.

The finish area offers a festival atmosphere with donuts, live music performances, and opportunities to enjoy the musical aspect of the event.

La Long View Marathon si corre da punto a punto tra Fort Collins e Loveland, nel nord del Colorado. La maratona parte da Edora Park e arriva a Fairgrounds Park. Lo stesso arrivo accoglie anche la mezza maratona, che parte da Fossil Creek Park, e una 5K con percorso intorno a Fairgrounds Park. Le gare si tengono a ottobre, con partenze scaglionate al mattino per la maratona, la mezza e la 5K. Il percorso usa tratti delle piste ciclabili Long View e Front Range, il che significa che le gare più lunghe si sviluppano su un corridoio di piste asfaltate invece di un classico anello chiuso in centro. Il ritiro pettorali è possibile da Altitude Running a Fort Collins il giorno prima della gara e in ogni zona di partenza la mattina della gara, soggetto a un cutoff rigoroso. I premi per la maratona e la mezza maratona includono opere personalizzate dell'artista locale Amy Hayman, gift card per attività commerciali locali, premi assoluti e premi di categoria; la 5K offre premi assoluti e masters.

Allora, il NCMC Turkey Trot si fa a Greeley, Colorado, la mattina del Ringraziamento. Si parte lì vicino al North Colorado Medical Center. L'organizza il CardioVascular Institute of North Colorado, e hanno pensato sia ai runner che a chi vuole solo camminare: c'è una 5K certificata USATF e poi una 2K più corta, la Gobler Trek, che è più una corsa per divertirsi. La 5K parte prima, e la 2K subito dopo, così le famiglie possono decidere se fare una gara con il cronometro o un'attività più rilassata per la festa. La partenza è sul lato est del North Colorado Medical Center, mentre il traguardo è su 16th Street, proprio davanti all'ospedale. Ci sono partecipanti di tutte le età e livelli, con i runner più veloci che si mettono davanti, prima di chi ha passeggini o carretti. È uno degli appuntamenti principali per le feste nel Northern Colorado, e tutti i soldi raccolti vanno ai programmi di riabilitazione cardiaca e polmonare, aiutando economicamente i pazienti che altrimenti non riuscirebbero a permettersi le cure.
