Event Description

Join Court Care on April 28, 2018 for our 6th annual Protect the Children 5K Run / Walk through historic North Monument Valley Park. This is a great race for beginners and advanced athletes alike. The race starts and ends near the serpentine wall (close to the baseball fields) heads north shortly, and then south, looping back to the start point. The course does not cross any roads and remains on gravel trail or grassy playing fields throughout. The course does not have major hills or other obstacles. Protect the Children 5K is presented in partnership with Pikes Peak Road Runners. 

All proceeds support Court Care to provide free, licensed childcare for anyone who needs to be in court in our region. Race to help protect children.

Court Care will be collecting gently used children's books to give to underserved children. Bring books on race day to help build children's love of reading.
