WinterFest 5k

The WinterFest 5k & Fun Run is a festive running event held in Thornton, Colorado, designed to kick off the holiday season. Participants can choose between a chip-timed 5k run/walk and an untimed Fun Run/Walk, which is approximately 0.75 miles. The event takes place at Carpenter Park and features a vibrant festival atmosphere, including ice skating, a holiday marketplace, and visits from Santa.

All finishers receive a collectible mug, and the event supports local charities, encouraging food donations for children in need. It's a great way to enjoy the winter season while giving back to the community. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
