Run or Relay with us Saturday, May 22, 2010!


Cheyenne Mountain Zoo invites world class runners and families alike to join in the Run to the Shrine on Saturday, May 22, 2010. Both the 5K and the 10K options curve through the Zoo and some of the most stunning mountain scenery this side of the Rockies. The races conclude at the world class event venue, The Lodge at Moose Lake!

A great opportunity for competitive racers, casual walkers, as well as families and children eager to show their enthusiasm for the Zoo, the Run to the Shrine offers the coveted opportunity to traverse Shrine Road via foot while knowing that this is the one time of the year when foot traffic is allowed.

Awards and activities for the entire family will follow in the renowned Lodge at Moose Lake at 9:00 am. See the schedule of events and awards sections below for further details.
