The Gleneagle Spirit 5k, set to take place annually in the heart of Northern El Paso County, invites runners and walkers alike to explore the charming streets of the Gleneagle community. Organized by local real estate professionals Blair Dinkins and Mark Rudolph, this event celebrates neighborhood spirit through a combination of family-friendly activities. The day kicks off at 8:15 AM with a Kids Fun Run designed for young participants eager to experience the thrill of racing in their own special way. This is followed promptly at 9:00 AM by the main attraction—the 5K Run/Walk, which winds through scenic residential areas and captures the essence of Gleneagle's close-knit community. Volunteers from within the neighborhood join Blair and Mark to ensure a seamless event experience for all attendees. Participants will benefit from professional chip timing courtesy of Eclectic Edge Racing, providing accurate results that add to the competitive spirit without detracting from the fun atmosphere. Families are encouraged to enjoy this day together while discovering the beauty of Gleneagle's surroundings, though it’s important to note that pets are not permitted on race day. This event is a testament to community involvement and local pride in action. The Gleneagle Spirit 5k promises an engaging morning filled with camaraderie and scenic routes for runners and walkers of all ages.
