Valentine's Day Run 5K/10K/13.1 Denver/Aurora
About the race
This is a smaller, private group run with a cap per wave, and all paces and ages (under 18 with guardian) are welcome, whether you run or walk.
There is no equipment or setup needed; it is a pure run with our coordinators to support you in a warm, stress-free setting.
Runs sell out quickly, and waves close the moment they fill.
What you get (swag bag)
- Running T-shirt (shipped to the address you register with, US only)
- Finisher's towel or giveaway
- Finisher's medal
- Digital training pack
- Optional technical running shirt, upgrade for $5 more. These lightweight, moisture-wicking shirts are available.
Timing
- Timing is optional: track your time on an app (Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, etc.) and submit it with our easy form to be posted online.
- Or ask our coordinators to help keep track of your time.
- No timing chips are used.
Packet pickup
There is no packet pickup. Swag is shipped directly to your address, so provide your full, correct US mailing address including apartment number and check the spelling. Race bibs are provided on race day.
When will I get my swag?
You will get your shirt at your mailing address the week of your race.
Late registrations
If you sign up two weeks before the race, it takes time for us to ship your shirt, so it will likely arrive after the run. You can wear any shirt you find appropriate to run the race.
Race updates
We will email you a final update the Wednesday before the race with final details and course maps.
Wave times
Waves are filled on a first come, first served basis. Email us your desired wave time at [email protected].
- Wave A: 7:30 AM
- Wave B: 8:00 AM

Late runners can run upon arrival. Our coordinators stay 3 hours after the first wave.
Virtual run option
The virtual run can be done any time and place of your choosing, using any tracking device (optional). It includes a training pack with digital tools. After you finish, submit your results to [email protected] to receive your medal.
If waves are sold out, you can sign up for the virtual run option or the wait list.

City insight: Aurora
Aurora is a home rule city spread across Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas counties in Colorado and is a principal city of the Denver metropolitan area. It is the third-most populous city in the state and sits within the Front Range Urban Corridor. The climate is semi-arid with sunny days, cold winters, and warm summers marked by afternoon thunderstorms, so late spring and early autumn are the best seasons to race.
