The 16th Annual Denver Veterans Day Run is a memorial 5K & 10K fun run to celebrate local Veterans. We will now be hosting this event both in-person and virtually. Recognized as “Denver’s Run for Veterans Day” by Mayor Mike Johnson, this fun run is open to runners, joggers, walkers, kids of all ages, and dogs who are always welcome. The suggested route takes runners through the beautiful City Park running trails in downtown Denver, however, you can use any route you'd like if you opt for the virtual event. The mission of the Denver Veterans Day Run is to celebrate and show support for our Veterans and their untiring efforts on Veterans Day weekend.
The Denver Veterans Day Run event will be hosted on Saturday, November 9th. With registration for the Denver Veterans Day Run, you will receive an exclusive race day T-shirt and finisher's medal.
