YMCA Annual Creepy Crawl 5k Race Oct. 25th - 10/21/25
Colorado Springs, CO — The YMCA of the Pikes Peak Region's Annual 5K Race Series kicks off with the Halloween-themed Creepy Crawl 5K race on Saturday, October 25th, 2025. The race takes place on the Santa Fe Trail in Palmer Lake, and all are invited. The course is stroller and dog-friendly, and costumes are encouraged.
The other two races in the series are the Turkey Trot 5K, held at the Briargate YMCA on Thanksgiving morning, Thursday, November 27th, and the Jingle Jog 5K, held in Fountain at the Fountain-Fort Carson High School on Saturday, December 13th, 2025.
Fun for the whole family, the YMCA 5K Race Series, which has nearly 6,000 participants annually, raises money to ensure all individuals and families in the Pikes Peak Region can access programs such as child care, swim lessons, and youth sports.
Whether helping kids get involved in sports, summer camps, or swim lessons, providing much-needed outreach to our seniors in the community, or perhaps free childcare to families that need it most, our YMCA Race Series raises much-needed funds for the community.
The YMCA would like to thank these 5K Race Series sponsors, including Dave & Buster's, Raising Cane's, Creative Consortium, Fleet Feet Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs Sports Corp, Fox 21, and Natural Grocers. Some sponsorships are still available; contact information is below.
Registration for the Creepy Crawl is still open, as well as for the other two races. Participants who sign up for all three races at once will receive a special commemorative medal at the end of each race. All three courses are stroller and dog-friendly, and each race has a free kids' fun run. Groups are encouraged, and as usual, so are costumes!
