All-Out Polar Prowl
The All-Out Polar Prowl is staged at the Stenger Sports Complex in Arvada, Colorado. The event includes in-person and virtual distance options that use the Van Bibber Creek Trail and nearby open spaces, with views of Table Mountain.
Distances offered:
- Half Marathon (13.1 Miles)
- 10K
- 5K
- Virtual half marathon, 10K, and 5K options
Course and facilities: the half marathon leaves from the Stenger parking lot and follows a scenic double out-and-back two-lap route on the Van Bibber Creek Trail. The half includes an initial westbound section of about 2.5 miles to the first turnaround, then an east out-and-back before a second full lap. The 10K follows a similar double out-and-back route with the same initial westbound segment. The 5K follows a double out-and-back with about 1 mile to the first turnaround. Aid and sanitation: the half marathon course lists 10 fueling opportunities and 4 restrooms, the 10K lists 5 fueling opportunities and 2 restrooms, and the 5K lists 4 fueling opportunities and 1 restroom.
Event features: the layout includes a spectator viewing area a short walk from the venue where half marathoners pass three times and 5K or 10K athletes pass once before the finish. The event supports Penguins International and includes a penguin costume contest. Virtual entrants receive event SWAG and a distance medal shipped the week after the event; virtual entries remain eligible for alumni brag tags and Run Amok Championship credit.
