2005 Harvest Poker Prediction Run

5-Mile Poker Run and Prediction Race held October 22 in Pueblo West.

Before this race, each runner was required to predict his/her finishing time. Watches were not allowed to be worn during the event. The runner who came closest to finishing at his/her predicted time was the winner.

A playing card was handed to each runner at every mile marker. At the end of the race, the male and female runners with the best “hand” won the “entry fee pot”.

Poker Hand Winners

Male: Ben Valdez - 3 fours
Female: Wendy Garrison - 3 Deuces
