Durango Motorless Transit is
the region's largest running club. Our members live throughout
the Four Corners (Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and Utah). DMT
is a non-profit organization, affiliated with the Road Runner's
Club of America (RRCA). We are organized to promote running for
all ages and abilities, conduct races, group running activities
and the health of the community through exercise.
The 34th Annual Narrow Gauge
Run begins at Animas Surgical Hospital located along the scenic Animas River. (for directions visit www.animassurgical.com).
The 10 Mile course winds through downtown Durango, proceeds along the River Trail and climbs up Hill to Fort Lewis College.
The 5K run goes the opposite direction along Hwy 3 and winds back along the river.
Both finish at the hospital for a post race party. Relax by the river, enjoy the awards ceremony, music, food and drink. Fun for the whole family.
The proceeds of the race will
benefit DMT and the Marc Witkes Memorial Fort Lewis College Scholarship
