THE 2020 FOREVER YOUNG RACE HAS BEEN CANCELED.

Decision has been made by Alan Overmier, race director, and Justine Fox-Young that the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 necessitates canceling this year's event scheduled for April 5.

Those who already registered will be contacted by race officials.

We are sorry for the inconvenience this causes, and appreciate your understanding as we all work through the efforts to minimize illness.
​
​

​​This race is a celebration in memory of our member Charlie Young, an avid runner, cyclist and outdoorsman, who was killed in a bike accident in Colorado in August 2004. Since Charlie always ran without a shirt even in the dead of winter, shirtless (not topless) participants are given a two dollar refund at the finish line. 

Charlie lived in Placitas, so the race is held on a dirt loop course in Placitas with rolling hills in a beautiful pinon/juniper area. 

A portion of proceeds benefits area non-profit groups.

About 2.6 miles east of I-25 on the south side of the highway will be located a small trailhead/parking area (approximately 1/2 mile east of Homestead Village shopping mall). This will be the location of the race start, packet pickup, and race day registration. Parking is along the shoulders of the highway.
