Mountain Goat Kids is more than a race series…it’s a lifestyle. Through trail running, we hope to establish a community for our youth that encourages camaraderie, challenge, and passion for the outdoors.
It was created by a group of five fathers who built a friendship while running the trails along Denver’s front range. As runners and parents, we feel compelled to expose children to the amazing—and often humbling—experiences of spending time outdoors.
Our trail series was created with the goal of challenging children to live healthy and active lifestyles. Through these fun activities, kids develop an intrinsic appreciation for nature’s playground.
Mountain Goats Kids’ mission is to strengthen children’s lives by instilling a sense of accomplishment, determination, and confidence through endurance activities. Our goal is to provide a safe environment for kids to compete (both with themselves and each other) in the great outdoors.
The Mountain Goat Kids trail run series is designed to be a family focused event but also challenging. We believe in today’s youth and want them to understand they can accomplish more than they think they can. Their only limitations are the ones we put on them as parents.
