Join us for the 4th annual Spirit of the West 5K run / walk and Family Fun Dash.

5K events begin at 7:00AM, while the Family Fun events begin at 8:00AM. This HILLY 5K course route is a fan-favorite — it loops through the Sixth Avenue West neighborhood, and concludes at the course starting point. Festivities and swag bags are provided to each registrant.

Medals awarded to 1st thru 3rd place finishers in each age category. Prizes awarded for best costumes!

Looking for some family fun? Try our Family Fun Dash!

This fundraising event benefits the Westernaires youth riding organization from Golden, Colorado. Founded in 1949, Westernaires is comprised of over 1,000 dedicated young people, aged 9 to 19. Westernaires encourages self-respect, responsibility and leadership through horsemanship and family participation. Westernaires has proudly trained young people to use their talents and skills in the best traditions of the West.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Interested in volunteering instead of running?

We’re looking for race day volunteers to assist with registration, handing out refreshments, giving directions, First Aid, and handing out swag bags.

We’re also seeking race sponsors. Do you have a small business that you’d like to promote to your neighbors? This is a great way to get the word out! Sponsorships start at $100, or customize your own.
