Does your new year's resolution involve being active? Setting healthy goals? Engaging with your community? Come start the year off right!
Join Fremont Adventure Recreation for our fourth annual Resolution Run on the first day of the new year - Wednesday, January 1, 2025! Both the 5K and 10K courses will run through the historic tunnels, reach their respective turnarounds, and head back. We'll have snacks and prizes at the finish line.

Date: Wednesday, January 1, 2025
Location: Start at Pueblo Community College Fremont Campus, run along Tunnel Drive
Cost: $15 for Economy Entry (youth just $5), add a tee for $25 or a hat for $20
Volunteer: Get a free tee for volunteering! Click here to help out. 

Thank you for joining us! A record 840 people signed up to run with us, and we are so grateful for your support and participation. Results are up, and photos / videos will be posted in a few days. 

Thank you for joining us for our 20th annual event...and for bearing with us through a few technology hiccups. YETI or Walk/Jog Awards will be distributed to schools or mailed to recipients. We apologize for the inconvenience. 

We use "Chip Time" to calculate awards. (This is the more accurate time as it detects when you crossed the finish line to start and when you crossed to end, not when the "gun" went off.) If you have any issues or discrepancies, we will do our very best to remedy them. Please contact [email protected]. 

Looking for a non-competitive running group? Join FAR for a weekly run along the Riverwalk. We'll meet at Cañon City MUGS (1520 Royal Gorge Blvd.), head toward the Riverwalk, and enjoy a 3-mile jog. Back at MUGS, enjoy beer and food specials.

Date: Every Wednesday, starting May 15th
Time: 5:30 pm
Location: Meet at Cañon City MUGS (1520 Royal Gorge Blvd.)
Cost: FREE
Details: All participants MUST sign a waiver to participate.

We are excited and proud to present our 2023 Year-End Report. This year has seen some great trail openings, new virtual events, and momentous developments. Our recreation opportunities are growing in leaps and bounds, and it's only through your support that it's happened! We can't wait to see what can be accomplished in 2024. 

Please also peruse our sponsor packet for 2023. If you feel that you or your business would like to contribute to recreation opportunities in our region, please let us know. We'd love to have you as a FAR contributor or donor!

We are proud to have worked with the City of Cañon City and CU's Masters of the Environment (MENV) Program to create the region's first-ever economic impact report aligned with outdoor recreation amenities. 

You can download the report here and read more about the positive impacts of trial systems on the local economy. We are excited to share this information with our community as we look to the future. Decisions to fund trails, create infrastructure, continue planning, and sustain development should be made with good data, and we are grateful to the CU students who have provided us with this!
