The Life We Have: 5k, Brunch + Film Screening

Move your body. Share a meal. Experience a story that stays with you.

Join us on Sunday, March 1st for a special community gathering celebrating the healing power of movement, connection, and shared stories.

We’ll start the morning with an all paces, all abilities 5K community run hosted by Latinos Run Denver, beginning at REI Denver. Whether you run, jog, or walk, everyone is welcome.

After the run, we’ll head just down the block to The Outpost on Platte for brunch and a screening of the moving short documentary The Life We Have, followed by a dynamic panel conversation with local advocates.

Produced by REI Co-op Studios and Seattle-based production company Wondercamp, The Life We Have follows one man’s extraordinary 20-year commitment to run every single day after receiving a stage four cancer diagnosis. This 24-minute film is a powerful reflection on resilience, community, and choosing to live with beautiful effort.

Community partners First Descents and The Ray of Hope Cancer Foundation will be onsite sharing resources and support for thrivers and caregivers.

Come for the miles, stay for the meaning — and leave connected to a community that believes in showing up for one another.
