Event Type : 10K

10K – A picturesque route on the paved trail around the Lake. It will test a runner’s mettle with its many turns and occasional hills.

2 Mile – A moderately hilly out-and-back course across the dam.

KIDS’ 1K – A relatively flat route along the trail for kids 12 & under.NOTE:  race day registration is $40, so sign up early.

On behalf of the Creighton University School of Medicine Make-A-Wish Team, we would like to personally invite you to this year’s Creighton Make-A-Wish 5K/10K Run/Walk. This race is a completely student-run, 38-year-long tradition, and we are anticipating one of our best races yet! All proceeds go to Make-A-Wish, helping them grant wishes for children suffering from life-threatening illnesses and making a huge difference in these children and their families’ lives.

Fast, Flat and in the Dark! The unique setting of a full Harvest Moon, coupled with an evening trail run on the Mopac Trail & great atmosphere has made this a ‘must run’ event for Nebraska runners each fall and sells out quickly.

These trail runs are hosted by the historic Eaton’s Ranch, the country’s oldest operating dude ranch located at the base of the Bighorn Mountains. All runners start on the lawn of the ranch, flow through a beautiful meadow, and then quickly change to single track where only horses, cattle, and trail runners roam! If you are looking for a true trail run experience, this is the race for you! Trails are primitive, runners need to pack their own nutrition, and wildlife is abundant.

This trail run will test your Wyoming grit! And, in true “Jeff” spirit, each race is “slightly” longer than your traditional 5k and 10k distances. Hence, the Jeff 5k and Ranch 10k nicknames. Be prepared!!!

To protect the integrity of the ranch, this is a cupless race event. Runners need to bring their own cup or device for water! Aide stations will provide water and gatorade for runners to re-fill.

Event shirt and race bag** included in price. Finishers will receive a commemorative Wolf Creek Wrangle finisher medal.

Check out our website runwolfcreekwrangle.com for detailed race information. Also join our group on Facebook!

We encourage trail run enthusiasts and Wolf Creek fans to consider participating virtually or making a donation still on behalf of Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Bighorns. This race event is the largest fundraiser of the year for Sheridan Wyoming’s Habtiat for Humanity!
