WWE Annual Run With The Wolves
WWE Annual Run With The Wolves is a community running event held at West Woods Elementary in Arvada, Colorado on September 27, 2026. The event features multiple participation options and a superhero theme; participants in the 5K and 1K receive a superhero logo t-shirt and Sleep-In participants receive the same t-shirt.
Distances and options:
- 5K
- 1K (untimed)
- Sleep-In for the Wolf Pack virtual 5K option
The 5K includes chip timing on a USATF certified course, t-shirt, water, snacks, prizes, and entertainment. Student participants receive a finisher charm and chain for the school Mileage Club. Fees listed by the organizer are $35 for 5K and 1K entries and $25 for the Sleep-In option.
Awards: top female and male finishers in kindergarten through 5th grade receive medals during the school week following the event. Awards for top middle school, high school, and adult finishers are distributed at the post-race award ceremony.
Post-race arrangements include a bib-based treat at Freedom Street Social where youths receive a small treat and adults may choose a house wine or a 16 oz beer. The Arvada Fire Department may not provide the usual post-race spray down due to water restrictions but plans to bring a fire truck; a bubble cannon is planned.
Packet pickup is outside the West Woods Elementary main entrance on September 24 and 25 from 3:00 to 4:00 pm. The event is open to West Woods students, alumni, families, friends, and the general public. Alumni and staff discount codes are offered and limited scholarships are available. Participants must complete the official marked course; shortening the course, missing required sections, or receiving unauthorized assistance may result in disqualification from awards and official results.
