• SMILE #UWokeUp -traumatic brain injury (TBI) awareness:- Run 3.1 Miles
• SMILE #UWokeUp -traumatic brain injury (TBI) awareness:- Kids Run

SMILE #UWokeUp and Athletes In Tandem, have teamed up to hold a 5K, 10K, & kids 1 mile loop, run, in Fort Collins. This race is designed to provide awareness of traumatic brain injuries to our communities. 

Two of the race directors are traumatic brain injury survivors themselves. Both, Jeff and Molly, were able to relearn how to walk, talk, eat, ect. For some traumatic brain injury survivors, this is not always the case. Athletes In Tandem give those who are unable to participate in a race on their own, the opportunity to be an official athlete in the race. I think it is fair to say that all parties involved with putting this race together, are passionate beyond belief about what we do.

Are you a race enthusiast or someone who wants to support a cause? Be a part of our fun filled day where we will be bringing our community together, while raising awareness. There will be activities for the kids, plus the park, so bring the family out and cheer each other on. 

This course offers a beautful view no matter your distance. The race starts in Sprink Creek Canyon park heading out going North on Overland. You are on Overland for a mile and than you start the incline heading West, passing Hughes Stadium, heading up Horsetooth. After 1 mile, you turn left onto Centennial Dr. for another mile until you reach the sumit, which is also the turn around point.
