Great Pumpkin Haul...

• 2 Mile Great Pumpkin Haul:- Run 2 Miles

The Great Pumpkin Haul is a 2 mile jaunt through forests, open fields, over creeks, hay bales, and through the scenic Botanic Gardens.  There is a catch though:  you will be covering these two miles carrying your very own personal pumpkin!  That’s right.  Before the “Haul”  you will have a chance to go pick out your very own pumpkin from Chatfield’s pumpkin patch (the pumpkin is included with entry). We will weigh it and mark it and you will be ready to go!  Only the best Pumpkin Haulers will finish with out dropping their pumpkin and for the love of fall, don’t pick one that is too light.  You need the biggest orange orb you can find!

THE STORY
Why would you carry a pumpkin for fun you may ask?  Well it all started one clear fall day under the big blue Colorado sky. A few friends were trying to pick out the perfect pumpkin to carve and light up. Did it take the group 5 min to pick each pumpkin and go home? Nooooooo…A bunch of us had to haul those big daddy pumpkins around for 30 minutes.  And it got tough, but it was fun.  That day inspired The Great Pumpkin Haul and we are gonna have a blast haulin’ those pumpkins and celebrating afterwards!
