Girls on the Run 5k at Colfax
The Girls on the Run 5K at Colfax takes place in Denver at 2001 Colorado Blvd. This event features a specific category for adult women aged 18 and older to participate as Running Buddies. These participants run the 3.1 miles course alongside girls from the Girls on the Run program to provide support and encouragement throughout the activity.
The primary role of a Running Buddy is to help their assigned participant or pair of participants maintain a positive attitude and celebrate the achievement of completing the distance. These volunteers act as role models and prioritize the experience of the girls over their own individual race times. All individuals registered in this capacity undergo a background check to ensure the safety of all participants involved.
Participants can register for the following distance:
- 3.1 Miles
Beyond the Running Buddy roles, the event also utilizes additional volunteers for various other tasks to support the race operations. Registration for the Running Buddy role opens in mid-March and involves a registration fee. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
