Candy Cane Course - Denver 2026

The Candy Cane Course in Denver is a Christmas-themed run held each December. Participants can choose from a 5K, 10K, 15K, an untimed 1 Mile, or a Kids Dash. The 5K, 10K, and 15K races are chip-timed with live results and awards. The shorter family events offer a simpler format for walkers, younger runners, and those preferring an untimed run. The event includes several holiday-themed extras. The 5K, 10K, and 15K registrations come with a custom bib, a designer shirt, and a finisher medal. Runners also receive complimentary photos and treats at the finish line. The event caters to families with youth pricing for the 5K and 10K, a Kids Dash for children aged 10 and under, youth-sized merchandise for registered dash participants, and a free option for kids who wish to run without merchandise.
