We are extremely proud of all the Native Messengers that ran the Buffalo Marathon (half & full) this morning. Some were first timers, some hit personal bests, and all represented well in the Western Door.

Ja:goh - now rest up!

First time as a Charity Partner, won't be our last!

Thank you to the Denver Colfax Race Weekend for the opportunity. Throughout the weekend, we recruited new Messengers and allies with the incredible support of the Indigenous Running Community of Denver!

We'll be back next year with a bigger charity team without a doubt!

Thank you to all the families that joined us this morning for the Denver Colfax 5K. In total, Run Like A Native helped 17 Native kids and 12 adults get into the race. For some, this was their first 5K event ever. This is just some of the footage of families we got to run with.

Our hearts are full ❤️ This was our inaugural year as Charity Partners with Denver Colfax Race Weekend, and we’re excited to continue growing this community year after year. Thank you to everyone who made today so meaningful.
