Just 2 weeks to go before our fall series starts! We're so excited!

Register here! https://healthykidsrunningseries.org/race-locations/denver-co/

Note: We'll also be hosting an early packet pickup the day before the 1st race.
Saturday 9/12 at the race site from 2pm-4pm
A great chance to get your child's bibs, T-shirt, check out the course, and ask questions so you aren't rushed the day of the first race.

If you do not do early packet pickup, please plan to arrive at least 30 minutes early on race day to take care of these things so we can have a timely start!

Fun weather to work around again for our last race! We will once again hope the weather breaks in our favor. Usual start time. We’ll likely combine the 1/2 girls & boys to shorten the time we are outside. We may also cancel the adult mile if weather does not cooperate.

We have the pavilion booked today so anyone can use for cover while waiting for races or after. Awards to follow the last race (either kids 1 mile or adult; weather depending) under the pavilion.

🌸 Happy Mother’s Day! 🌸

Just a quick reminder that there is NO race today, Sunday, May 10th. We hope all of our HKRS moms, grandmothers, and family heroes have a wonderful day filled with relaxation and celebration!

Enjoy the break, and we will see you back next week for our 5th & final race & series award celebration!

See you next Sunday! πŸπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

Can't believe we squeezed in our race in between the rain clouds! Thanks for braving the weather with us! Looking forward to warmer weather this weekend!
Also, big thanks to our newest volunteer-- our photographer, Seesing the Moment Photography.
A link to photos will come out via email soon. Posting a few sneak peeks. She'll be back with us for the last race, 5/17.
Thank you, Kay!

We are a go! Looks like storms should move past us. Worst case we run in a little rain but still should be a good day for a race! See you soon!

Families, weather is looking a little iffy this Sunday. We will make the call at 1pm on Sunday. We’ll communicate on this page as well as email.
Think sunny thoughts and hope to see you all Sunday! β˜€οΈ

Thank you all for a great first race! Thank you for your patience as we checked everyone in and as we figured everything out as first time coordinators. HUGE thanks to our volunteers! We needed each & every one of you at every step!

Sincere apologies about the mix up on the girls 1/4 mile race. Our cones got moved!
We’ll take extra steps next race to explain the course, ensure our cones are still there, & place more volunteers out for guidance.

We’ll get better each race!
We sure had fun though & hope you & your kids did too! See you next Sunday!

Packet Pick up today!

Stop by, save yourself some time, and also a chance to check out the area before race day tomorrow!

No worries if you can't make it today. Just give yourself some extra time/come early to tomorrow's race.

See you then!
