Run to the Shrine is the ONLY time foot traffic is allowed on Shrine Road. Participants will start the ascent at their leisure, and there will be no official timing services.
The race is a great route for competitive athletes, weekend warriors, casual walkers and families of all ages. Jogging strollers equipped with tethers and automatic hand brakes are welcome!
Run to the Shrine registration includes evening Zoo admission until 8 p.m. and a commemorative performance T-shirt featuring our crowned crane mascot. All proceeds help feed and care for Cheyenne Mountain Zoo’s animals.
