This event is for all ages and abilities, whether you're in it to win or out for a fun Sunday morning walk. Come out and take a step to help kids in Grand Junction by participating in the 2.5K, 5K, or 10k distance. *The really littles, 4 & under, can participate in the free Hatchling Hustle!
The 2026 run/walk will take place on April 12th at Las Colonias Park, 1461 Riverfront Drive, Grand Junction, CO 81501.
We are excited to be partnering with the D51 Foundation. They are a great addition that will help us promote and grow the fun run. Thank you D51Foundation for the work you do to help kids and schools in our community.
