Forever Young Run

The Forever Young Run is a commemorative running event held in Placitas, New Mexico, celebrating the life of Charlie Young, a passionate runner and cyclist. Scheduled for April 6, 2025, participants can choose between a 3-mile or 6-mile run/walk on a scenic dirt loop course surrounded by beautiful pinon and juniper trees. The event encourages runners to honor Charlie by running shirtless, and awards will be given to the top finishers in various age categories.

Proceeds from the race benefit the Placitas Community Library, and refreshments, including breakfast burritos, will be provided post-race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
