Event Description

Welcome to the 3rd Annual Black and Gold 5K!  The purpose of the event is to serve as a fundraiser for the Alamogordo Tiger Cross Country team.  The fun run will showcase to the community what Alamogordo Cross Country is all about.  Participants will run on the same course that our Alamogordo Cross Country team runs on.  The 5K will be a trail run through the desert and on the grass inside Griggs Sports Complex along the base of the Sacramento Mountains.  The race will begin and end at Griggs Sports Complex.  There are 3 categories for the event: 5K run, 5K walk, and 1 Mile childrens' run.  In addition, the first 50 people to register will receive a free t-shirt.  Look forward to seeing you there!!

Event details and schedule

In-person registration will occur from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM the day of the event.  Also, this is when you will receive your t-shirt as well.  The first event of the day will be the Future State Champs 1-Mile Run at 6 PM.  Upon conclusion of this run, we will begin the 5K.  The course will begin on the grass at the Griggs Sports Complex and circle the park clockwise.  From there you will run East toward the mountain on a dirt path as you enter a desert loop.  You will reverse your grass loop to finish the 5K. We look forward to seeing you at our event.
