Race History
The GMAA has held a variation of the Red Rocks 5k since the early 1990s to raise money for the GMAA scholarship fund. Each year the GMAA awards scholarships to college-bound runners based on their contributions to the sport of running and their academic achievement. In recent years the GMAA has awarded 2 or 3 $1,000 scholarships to students who have achieved academic excellence and contributed to the sport of running.
