Bring your friends and family to walk or run in the second annual Waldo Waldo 5K! The idea is simple: register, receive a “Where’s Waldo?” costume to wear, and support the community.
Proceeds will go to the restoration and maintenance of Waldo Canyon as well as other parks, local trails and open spaces in Colorado Springs.
We May Even Get a World Record!
The current world record for the largest gathering of people dressed as Waldo is 3,872. We had over 1,000 at the first Waldo Waldo 5K in 2012, let's go for the record this year!
The Waldo Waldo 5K. The idea was simple: register, receive a "Where's Waldo?" costume to wear, give support to our community and show just how strong Colorado is.
The event was hosted at America the Beautiful Park on October 21 at 10am. All of the net proceeds are going to the Waldo Canyon Firefighters Fund.
