The Dash is an event to kick-off the spring season and support Denver City Lax, a nonprofit utilizing lacrosse as a platform to assist at-risk youth on the field and in the classroom. Schools, teams and individuals have been rallying together at the Dash for the past ten years.

In-Person Option: The in-person City Lax Dash will take place on February 8, 2026 at City Park. Check-in begins at 9:00 AM and the race starts at 10:00 AM.

Virtual Option: This year we're also offering a virtual option for people who are unable to attend in person, and for individuals/teams who are out of state.

- Virtual When: February 2-8. Teams participating in the virtual City Lax Dash can choose any day and time during the virtual Dash week that best fits their schedule.

- Virtual Where: You choose the location! You can run a 5k, dedicate sprints, dedicate a team workout, whatever you choose as long as you’re doing a team activity and getting a sweat to promote your participation in the City Lax Dash.

Participating in the Dash helps make a difference in the community and change lives. Denver City Lax is working to promote diversity and financial access within the sport. Kids in under resourced neighborhoods who would not otherwise participate are given the no-cost opportunity to be part of a team, learn a new activity, take part in year-round education and enrichment programs and grow as individuals. You will be making a difference!
