Farmers 5000
About the Event
The Farmers 5000 is likely one of the very first school-based 5K fundraisers in the state of Colorado. Since 1981, serious racers and weekend warriors alike have been coming to Wheat Ridge High School to run the Farmers 5000! Starting and finishing in front of the school, this race winds through the surrounding neighborhoods making it a true community event. The Farmers 5000 continues to raise money to support school programs while promoting physical fitness and community spirit. All funds from entry fees are given to various educational and special programs within the school. The 5K run and walk, along with a Fun Run, are open to all!
Join fellow runners on September 20, 2026 for the Farmers 5000. It's a fantastic 5K featuring a flat and fast course in Wheat Ridge.
