Description
The 12th annual Will Run for Cannoli 5k is a family fun run/walk and will be held on July 11, 2026 at Lions Park in Cheyenne. Participants can expect a fun course, age division prizes, raffles, a finisher medal, and homemade cannoli at the end!!!
The race will begin at 8:00 a.m. near the pavilion by the Children's Village. Participants will run toward the east around Sloans Lake, through the tunnel under Central Avenue, and counter-clockwise around the golf course. Participants will then go through the tunnel again and continue running westerly/counter clockwise around Sloans Lake, ending at the beach. There, each participant will receive a finisher medal and a delicious, homemade, Sicilian cannolo!!
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Boys and Girls Club of Southeast Wyoming. Packet pick up will be available beginning July 9 at Foot of the Rockies and at the event on race day. Please note, registration fees are non-refundable.
Registration will be limited to the first 300 registrants. Race day registration will be available unless the race has already reached the race cap. This race sold out last year, so please register early so you don't miss out on the fun!
Fun for the Whole Family!
The Will Run for Cannoli 5k has something for everyone! Finisher medals, race swag, and cannoli for all participants, and age group awards to celebrate runners of all ages! And one of our favorite parts of the event - raffle prizes galore!!
We are proud to donate the race proceeds to the Boys and Girls Club of Southeast Wyoming - a program that is making a difference in the lives of hundreds of Laramie County children!
Be ready to enjoy a beautiful morning with friends (including Captain Cannoli, who might just tell you some really bad pirate jokes) while doing something good for yourself and the community!
