Route information

The ColderBOLDER 5K was created in 2003 as part of our racing series. It’s the “polar opposite” sister race to the BOLDERBoulder. It has become increasingly popular, now selling out year after year.
Race Format
The ColderBOLDER is actually 14 individual races plus a Walking Wave. The top three men and women in each race win Cold Medals. That’s 84 medalists total. So come break out in a cold sweat with us, and pour cold water on those winter blues.
The First 13 races are for people who participated in the last BOLDERBoulder. Each race puts people together who are about the same speed. Why? So everyone has a shot at winning. For example, if you finished the BOLDERBoulder in 52 minutes you race against people who finished between 52-54 minutes. It’s everyone’s chance at personal racing glory and eternal fame.
The 14th Open Race is open to people of all abilities.
We finish with 1 Walking Wave. This is open for anyone who want a festive stroll through CU campus and our winter wonderland. This is not a race (no 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place Cold Medals), but all will receive a Finisher’s Medal!

What's included

• Official ColderBOLDER Beanie
• Bonus Long Sleeve ColderBOLDER Shirt
• Finisher medal after completing the race
• Official ColderBOLDER bib with timing tag with splits at every mile
• Breakfast burrito, donuts, coffee, hot chocolate and other goodies at the finish line
