I Can 5k

The I Can 5k is a 5K running event at Carpenter Park Fields in Thornton, Colorado, scheduled for October. It is designed for individuals seeking a relaxed approach to completing the distance, accommodating running, jogging, walking, or crawling. The organizers prioritize safe movement, providing a well-marked course and volunteers to guide participants. The series links each race registration to a local charity, with participants encouraged to solicit donations prior to race day. Additional donations can lead to more items in the swag bag, directly enhancing the runner's experience. Charity partners include Women's Wilderness, Growing Home, Volunteers In Action, We Don't Waste, Clean Colorado Coalition, and Latina Safehouse.
