Uniqueness of the Experience
Participating in an event at Luvin Arms is a very unique and special opportunity! All runners will be able to see a diverse community of species who live at the sanctuary where they all have been rescued with the mission to receive lifelong care and love. In addition to finding joy while running, part of your experience is to observe and feel the calm and peaceful surroundings, which also include a grand panoramic view of the amazing Rocky Mountains. It is truly a remarkable time!
Some of the many new friends you'll meet while running are Jale the horse, Dali the donkey, Tendu the potbelly pig, Peter the white peacock, Button the chicken, Yoda the duck, Chamomile the turkey, Maybelle the cow, Cheerio the sheep, Gelato the goat, and Lizzie the big pig!
Course Maps, Terrain, and Views
With approximately only 200 feet of elevation gain, the sanctuary features an off-road style course that's mostly flat, fast and non-technical with a mix of dirt, grass, and gravel - it's a great terrain for all levels of ability! If you like to take it easy or go at a brisk pace, you will have a great time as you enjoy views of the stunning Rocky Mountains and pass by many of the lovely sanctuary residents - they're very curious and love watching runners as they go by for each lap!
Here's our course map around the sanctuary grounds:
Aid Station Goodness
We will feature one central aid station near the main race hub area that will be stocked with water and other assorted goodies to supplement your race fueling needs and appetite enjoyment!
Event Parking
Please consider carpooling if friends and family will also be participating - it's fun to ride together!
All parking will be onsite at Luvin Arms with staff & signs directing guests upon arrival. Please drive slowly!
