Christmas Mountain 5 Mile Run - Christmas Mountain 1 Mile Run

Salida, CO

Registration for this year's Christmas Mountain Run will open on June 1! There will be a new 5 mile race course this year, taking place on city and county roads and concrete pedestrian paths. The 1 mile course will remain the same. Celebrate Thanksgiving weekend and the lighting of Christmas Mountain in Salida with a 5 mile and 1 mile race! The 5 mile course begins and ends by Riverside Park in downtown Salida. Race course is very scenic and mostly flat (around 215 feet of elevation gain) and takes place on city and county roads and concrete pedestrian paths. This event is designed for all runners, and we encourage all ages and abilities to come out! Packet pickup, post race drinks and snacks, and awards will also take place at the Salida Scout Hut in Riverside Park in downtown Salida. Race begins at 10am, giving participants time to sleep in after Thanksgiving, and then relax with friends and family before heading back to downtown Salida for the lighting of Christmas Mountain.
