Narrow Gauge 10 Mile

Date: Sunday, May 26, 2024
Time: 8:00 am - 12:00 pm
Location: Santa Rita Park, Durango

Be a part of history -- this is the longest continuously run road race in Colorado!  
Since 1978, the Narrow Gauge 10 Mile Run has been one of Durango's oldest Memorial Day traditions. This year, we're back at beautiful Santa Rita Park. Bring your entire family, and they can spend time at the playground or watch the rafts navigate the Whitewater Park while you run. Free parking is available; bike or carpool if you can. 

Proceeds benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwest Colorado, Fort Lewis Cross-Country/Track Scholarships, and other great Four Corners organizations.
