Griffin Ford Fort 14 & 5K

With the recent increase in COVID-19 cases in Dane County, it's pretty clear that we are still living in a time of uncertainty. We have been working diligently to determine how to effectively proceed with hosting the Griffin Ford Fort 14 & 5k this year in a safe manner for our participants, staff, volunteers and spectators. We believed that by postponing the event until August 1st we would ensure that we would be adhering to public health guidelines. However, after further discussions with Griffin Ford Lincoln Fort Atkinson, Fort Healthcare, and Jones Market we feel it would be irresponsible of us to proceed with the event this year while these guidelines and recommendations are still evolving and the future is still so unclear. And therefore we are deeply saddened to be announcing the cancellation of the 2020 Griffin Ford Fort 14 & 5k.

This is not the news we want to be sharing with all of you as we know so many of you want to be out there racing - and trust us, we do too! We empathize with your disappointment and we are immensely grateful for your patience and support over the past few months. We understand that no option we provide works for everyone. We ask for your understanding during these critical times for our organization. But for now, it's important that we are prioritizing the safety of all participants, staff, volunteers and spectators.

All registered participants will be given the option to defer their entry to 2021 or they may choose to donate their entry fee to be put towards funding free entries to front line workers. Further details will be emailed to all registered participants on these options. We appreciate the continued support from our sponsors Griffin Ford Lincoln Fort Atkinson,  Fort Healthcare, and Jones Market; as well as our participants, volunteers, and staff! We hope to see you all in June 2021!
