The Why
What if you could use your exercise goals to help out small businesses AND our food banks?
We all love races and these are trying times for our race directors who rely on events as their sole source of income. They were the first businesses to shut down and will be the last to open. This event unites race directors across the state of Colorado, highlights small businesses every day, AND gives back to our local food banks. Let’s lace up again with purpose in support of our communities and let’s continue Changing Lives Together.

How are small businesses chosen?
RUN to Change Lives™ has a list of small businesses who have partnered with us and supported our events over the years. They are our first priority, and we also realize there are many other small businesses state-wide who are also struggling.
Do you know a small business that is struggling to keep afloat? Can you rally your neighborhood to get signed up to support them? Please contact us at info@runtochangelives.org
I lost my job
We at the RUN to Change Lives™ team are so sorry to hear the news of friends who have been impacted by the COVID-19 impact to the economy. We would love to have you join us and we have a limited number of sponsorships available to get you signed up for free. Please email us at info@runtochangelives.org
All Proceeds Benefit
We’ve heard from the director of the Help&Hope Center that funds and supplies are running low. They can buy groceries and feed families for .20 cents on the dollar. Let’s maximize our dollars by living beyond ourselves and giving back.
Weather and Liability
Keep in mind outdoor paths may not be cleared in the event of concerning Colorado weather conditions. Please use your best judgement and plan accordingly. We assume no liability for injuries.
Refund Policy
No refunds given. Funds are used continuously throughout the challenge to invest back into small businesses.
