JOIN THE CU WAVE

LET’S GO BUFFS! The “CU Wave” is a special, unified starting wave for University of Colorado students, alumni, faculty, and staff, allowing them to run together to showcase their school pride as they make their way to the iconic Folsom Field finish. Everyone gets a special CU race bib, and we also make a donation to the CU Cross Country team on behalf of everyone who joins. If Chip can run the BB, you can too. 

When you register just need to click the option to join the CU Wave. Super easy. This also unlocks your ability to add this limited edition 2026 CU BOLDERBoulder shirt for only $10! It’s your choice, but it’s a screaming deal and is only available to those bold enough to be part of this wave.

Note: All waves have limited capacity which is our way of letting you know that that this wave and this shirt sell out every year.
