WOMEN EMPOWERING WOMEN

Women of the Sawatch is a nonprofit, vibrant running community nestled in Colorado’s high Rockies, dedicated to empowering women and increasing representation on the trails—especially for LGBTQ+, BIPOC individuals, and their allies.

We’re committed to creating connection, fostering inclusivity, and inspiring women to explore the trails. Through monthly runs, community meetups, and educational events, we welcome all, whether you're a seasoned ultrarunner or just starting your trail journey.

Our mission goes beyond running. We are deeply invested in the Colorado trail community—partnering with local organizations, supporting programs with similar goals, volunteering at races, and maintaining the trails we love. 

If you feel at home in a space centered on women’s running, we’d love to have you join us.

Join us for our Launch Party on May 18th in Salida!
