Women's Distance Festival 5K

Race Info

The Women's Distance Festival is no longer an event for “women only”. This event is now a “community” event, supporting the Girls on the Run® of the Rockies. All net proceeds from this event will be donated to Girls on the Run® of the Rockies™. Join the Pikes Peak Road Runners and be part of the recognition of this organization. All monies will stay in our community and be designated for overall program support. Girls on the Run is a non-profit organization that uses the power of running to change the way girls ages 8-13 see themselves and their opportunities. Girls learn to stretch themselves physically, mentally, emotionally and socially through a unique 10 week curriculum that combines self-esteem, character-building lessons with training for a 5K.

GIRLS ON THE RUN PARTICIPANTS DO NOT NEED TO REGISTER FOR THE RACE.

NO ANIMALS, NO BABY JOGGERS/STROLLERS, NO EARBUDS/HEADPHONES, NO BIKES/TRIKES PLEASE RESPECT THE SAFETY OF ALL.

Colorado Springs Utilities will have their Water Trailer at the park for all your hydration needs.
