Gravity Run to send racers downhill

Small Business Development Center at UCCS plans inaugural event

The Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs is hosting a 5K/10K fun run, the first Small Business Gravity run, on Oct. 30.

Event proceeds will benefit the SBDC, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting small business in El Paso and Teller counties through free counseling and low-cost training workshops.

Dubbed the Gravity Run because the course is all downhill, the race begins at 9 a.m. at the SBDC Building on the UCCS campus and ends at the Mr. Biggs Event Center, 5825 Mark Dabling Blvd. Racers are encouraged to wear Halloween costumes.

Registration is $25 per racer, or $70 for teams of three. Online registration closes at 10 p.m. Oct. 27.

UCCS faculty, staff and students may register by calling 719-255-3844.
