FRONTRUNNERS
About Us
Colorado Frontrunners is a running and walking club for the LGBTQ community and their friends, and is one of more than 100 International Frontrunners clubs around the world.
Please join us for our weekly runs and walks in Denver or Boulder. Seasonally, you can find us running trails at various locations throughout the Front Range. We also meet for Happy Hour on the first Friday of each month.
Runners and walkers of all abilities are welcome. It's a great way to get active, stay healthy and make friends.
