Description:
5k races can be boring; we understand. What we don't understand is why. Colorado is a spectacular place, and it deserves a spectacular 5k, which is why we created the Run the Ranch 5k Run & Walk. Returning for its second year, the event avoids the typical pavement of other races and sticks to the Front Range's best trails.

Event features: All entrants will receive a tee shirt and finisher's medal. Music, drinks, and food will be available after the race, in addition to live results.

Course details:
The course starts out on a wide trail that follows a straight path through a flat field. About a 1/2 mile in, the course turns onto singletrack that meanders alongside a small stream into and out of a coniferous forest. After entering the interior of the ranch, the course continues to follow a creek up to a set of historic logging roads that have great views of the surrounding mountains. It's all downhill from here. The course continues through a light forest and onto the main ranch road, which leads to the finishing line.

In total, the course has a total climbing elevation of 563 feet.

Dogs: Dogs will be allowed on course. Dog water will be available at all of the water stations. Please be sure to keep dogs on leash and clean up after them, if needed. Also, make sure they do not prevent other runners and/or walkers from passing.
