Paralympics | 5280 Challenge

We tried to hold off on this announcement as long as we could...but we did what was best for our athletes, officials, and meet personnel.

The 5280 Challenge has been cancelled for the 2020 season.

Thank you for your support over the past 8 years and we look forward to a healthy environment to hold this event again in 2021.

ABOUT

5280 CHALLENGE

Back to Top

The 5280 Challenge is a track and field meet and archery competition for Paralympic athletes, masters athletes, disabled veterans and members of the armed services. Started in 2013, the 5280 Challenge provides competition for athletes in the Rocky Mountain region.

In 2021, we will host the 9th annual 5280 Challenge! In addition to our traditional track and field meet, we host an archery competition. Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, we had to cancel the 5280 Challenge in 2020.

Check out the TRACK HOME PAGE for the meet schedule.

We are excited that again the 5280 Challenge Track & Field Meet will serve as the USATF - Colorado Association Outdoor Championship meet for the following athletes:

Masters Outdoor Championship
Para Athletics Outdoor Championship
Race Walk 5k Championship

Our track and field meet is geared towards Masters athletes (athletes 30 years and older), Paralympic athletes (athletes with a physical disability), and athletes who are Veterans.

Other athletes are welcome to compete in this track and field meet if they are members of USATF or Adaptive Sports USA.

Check out the ARCHERY HOME PAGE for information about the 3rd Archery Tournament!

Our Archery competition is open to archers of any age, with emphasis on Paralympic athletes (athletes with a physical disability) and athletes who are Veterans.

Thank you for your interest in the 5280 Challenge and we hope to see you at the track and field meet or the archery competition on Saturday, June 5, 2021.
