Westy Winter Waggle 5&10k

Westy Winter Waggle 5&10k takes place in Westminster, Colorado, on February 6, 2027. The 10K (6.2 miles) starts at 9:40 a.m. and the 5K (3.1 miles) follows at 10:00 a.m., a later schedule than most winter races and a welcome one in February.

Racing on the Front Range means racing at altitude, and that is the detail visitors underestimate most. If you are coming from sea level, add time to your expectations rather than fighting for your usual pace, and pay closer attention to hydration than you would at home. Locals can simply race it. The 20-minute gap between the starts is enough to make a double possible if you are willing to treat the 10K as a warm-up, though most people will pick one and run it properly.
