Chilly Willy 5K/10K/Half Marathon - Las Cruces
The Chilly Willy event on January 10 offers three distance choices running on the trails of La Llorona Park. Distances include:
- 5K
- 10K
- Half Marathon
The 5K and 10K use single out and back courses. The half marathon is a double loop. The course is described as generally flat. Self-serve water stations are placed approximately every 1.5 miles. A course cutoff for the half marathon is set at 3.5 hours, which corresponds to a 16 minute per mile pace.
Every participant receives a finisher medal. Overall and age-group awards are presented for each distance using five-year age categories beginning with 10 and under. The event includes winter-themed swag and a finish-line experience. Registration details note that December 31 is the last day to register to guarantee a shirt size.
A virtual race option is available for those who cannot attend in person. Virtual participants register, run or walk on a route of their choice, submit results online, and may still be eligible for awards and event apparel. Results for virtual entries are viewable after the event date. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
