City Park 5k & 1 Mile Walk of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research

City Park 5k & 1 Mile Walk of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research is held in Denver, Colorado, on November 7, 2026. The 10K run and the 5K run/walk both start at 9:00 a.m., covering 6.2 and 3.1 miles, and a one-mile walk follows at 9:10 a.m. Finishers receive a medal, and proceeds go to the University of Colorado's division of surgical oncology.

Denver's altitude is the practical variable here: if you are coming from sea level, expect the same effort to produce a slower time, particularly over the 10K, and pace by feel rather than by your usual splits. The 10K rewards a base of 20 to 25 miles a week with one weekly tempo run; the 5K and the one-mile walk are open to anyone. The event takes place during World Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month.
