Calling all cold-blooded runners, rebels, and fitness junkies! The ColderBOLDER 5K is open to everyone. So layer up, grab a hat, and join us. Oh yes you can!
This 5K is a little different, but so are those of us who enjoy running in the cold. It is actually 13 individual races. The top three men and women in each race win Cold Medals and an ice-cold YETI Rambler. That’s 78 medalists total.
The First 12 Races: these are for people who participated in the last BolderBOULDER. Each individual 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 would race against people who finished between 52-54 minutes. It’s your chance at personal glory and eternal fame. You got this.
The 13th and Final Race: this is open to everyone, runners, joggers and walkers. We all want to stay fit over the holidays, and we want everyone to be able to participate. So, break out in a cold sweat with us. Let’s pour cold water on those winter blues.
The ColderBOLDER was created as a part of our racing series and has since become almost like a sister race to the BolderBOULDER. It has become increasingly popular year after year and so much so, that it has sold-out the past three years. Runners are attracted to it because it is approximately six months after the BolderBOULDER and runs during the holiday season when road racing opportunities are sparse. The ColderBOLDER is a fast 5K course that runs through the University of Colorado’s picturesque campus and finishes in the university’s field house where a festive holiday spirit fills the air. Although it’s a smaller race, customers can still expect our high level of customer service and racing experience and I think that’s what makes this race so popular.
The ColderBolder is locally owned and operated. This event has taken on a life that we never quite envisioned, and it rewards us every year beyond measure. We hope you will join us to celebrate fitness, the cold, and this state of ours, Colorado.

The ColderBOLDER is a unique concept – you race against other runners with a similar BOLDERBoulder (BB10K) finish time! The first 13 races of the ColderBOLDER are based on BB10K times (e.g. 46-48 minutes), and the top 3 finishers of each race get an award. The 14th race is open to anyone, including walkers. This was my fifth ColderBOLDER, and I’ll be back next year too!
