Bingo! Trail Runs : 5th Annual
Bingo! Trail Runs is a loop-based trail event held at Addenbrooke Park in Lakewood, CO with a combined runner capacity of 200. The event uses a bingo-draw format: runners run repeated loops and draw chips from a personal bag at the control point until they complete a bingo on their bib. Only runners who obtain a bingo are listed in the official results with the total miles run to reach that bingo.
Distances by level:
- Level 1: 6 to 18 miles, average 10 miles
- Level 2: 8 to 33 miles, average 15 miles
- Level 3: 8 to 50+ miles, average 30 miles
Each level uses a different bib and chip set size. Level 1 bibs contain three numbers and a small chip set; Level 2 bibs contain four numbers and a larger chip set; Level 3 uses a 5x5 bingo card with a 24-number chip set and a free space. Loops vary roughly from 2 to 3.6 miles depending on level. Chips removed from a bag are not returned; runners continue loops until their bib meets the bingo condition for their level.
The course follows single-track and paved trails. If trail conditions are unsuitable, the route will use paved bike paths. One main aid station at the control point offers water, electrolyte drink, snacks, and drop bag access. Crews and pacers are not permitted. Spectators are allowed at the start/finish area only. All finishers receive a unique finisher award; awards are not mailed. The event is held with permission from the City of Lakewood. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
