Colbert Elementary Cougar Challenge 5K & Cougar Crawl (1 Mile)

Get ready to run, walk, jog, or stroll for a great cause!
Colbert Elementary School PTO is excited to host the Cougar Challenge 5K & Cougar Crawl (1 Mile)—a fun, family-friendly event that brings our school community together while supporting our students and staff. Show your COURAGE! 

The 5K will start properly at 8:30 AM. After it is complete, the Cougar Crawl will happen on campus. Any youth who are not participating in the 5K are welcome to stay and play on the playground while the adults/older kids participate in the 5k. 

Whether you’re racing for a personal best, walking with friends, or cheering from the sidelines, there’s a place for everyone at the starting line!

5K will be timed by Athens Running Company. For questions, call 706.850.6051 or email athensrun@gmail.com with any questions.

T-shirts and racing bib pickup will be available Friday from 3pm-5pm at Colbert Elementary or the morning of Race.
