Event summary

Get ready for a unique and exciting experience at the Turkey-Donut Predict Run on Saturday, November 22, 2025! This fun-filled event will take place on the scenic Spring Creek Trail, where participants will engage in a thrilling prediction run that adds a twist to the traditional 5k. Instead of racing against the clock, runners will estimate their finishing times before the race begins, and the top five closest to their estimates will win fantastic prizes.

Registration will be available on-site starting at 7:30 AM, with the race kicking off at 8:30 AM. Remember, no watches or timing devices are allowed, so it's all about your intuition and pacing! Not only is this event a great way to challenge yourself, but it's also a fundraiser for the Food Bank for Larimer County. A minimum donation of $10 per person is strongly encouraged to be eligible for our exciting raffle, featuring prizes from local businesses and restaurants. Join us for a morning of fun, fitness, and community spirit, and test your legs in preparation for the upcoming turkey day races!

Organiser's Description

ONLINE REGISTRATION CLOSED AT THE EOD THURSDAY, NOV 20 TO GIVE US TIME TO PREP.

RACE MORNING REGISTRATION WILL BE AVAILABLE ON-SITE STARTING AT 7:30A.

Just you wait, because this isn't your ol' run-of-the-mill 5k. Runners have to estimate their finishing time prior to the start; we don't allow time keeping devices of any kind. The top 5 people that come closest to their estimate win. So just because you're fast doesn't mean you'll win this one.

The race is FREE and a fundraiser for the Food Bank for Larimer County. All are welcome to participate in the run, but you have to donate to be eligible for the raffle (which is where the real action is). We STRONGLY suggest a minimum donation of $10/person, though will always welcome whatever you're able to give.

BOTH online pre-registration and race day registration are available (though pre-registration makes our lives easier). Online registration will close at the EOD Thursday, Nov 20 to give us time to prep. Race morning registration will also be available on-site starting at 7:30a.

This year, we'll open the start line at 8:30a.
You can start whenever you like, as long as you're back by 10:00a. We'll be directing folks to loosely alternate which direction (east/westbound) they head on the Spring Creek Trail.

The event is chip timed. We'll provide the chips. If you're a FCRC member with a Tortoise & Hare bib, no need to bring it.

This is a PREDICTION run. Enter the time you think you'll run on your registration form. NO WATCHES or timepieces of any sort allowed during the run. We encourage you to rat out your fellow runners!

All who donate to the Food Bank receive a ticket for our famous raffle, where we have prize packs from many local businesses and restaurants, race entries, and much more! Our biggest giveaway of the year! The raffle starts at 10:00a SHARP, you must be present to win, and each individual donating (regardless of size of donation) gets ONE ticket.

We are STRONGLY encouraging monetary donations this year, which you can make right on your registration form. Cash $$$ helps the most. The Food Bank has resources to buy products at much, much deeper discounts than any of us could buy. The $5 you spend on a 2 jars of PB could be turned into 10 jars through the Food Banks sources.

This is a free event so come join the community and test out your legs for the upcoming turkey day races.
