Venue Overview

Front Range Community College’s Larimer Campus sits in southwest Fort Collins and feels like a traditional small college campus, with green lawns, walking paths and a cluster of buildings named for Colorado peaks. More than 10,000 students take classes here. For sporting events, the campus offers open, flat grounds that work well as a start and finish area for runs and walks, plus the Gray Wolf Greens Disc Golf Course, which winds around the campus and is free for anyone to play. In December the campus is the start and finish of the Sweaty Sweater 5K, a holiday run and walk through the neighborhood next door.

Disc Golf and Running on a Fort Collins Campus

Gray Wolf Greens is the campus disc golf course. FRCC lists it as free to all, and students can rent discs through Student Life and Engagement. The UDisc course directory describes a 13-hole layout with grass tees on flat, easy terrain, about 1.3 miles around, that takes most players under an hour. Because it is a mixed-use course on a working campus, players are asked to watch for pedestrians on the walking trails, steer clear of building windows and take extra care during weekday class hours.

The same flat grounds make the campus a practical home base for road races. The Sweaty Sweater 5K starts and finishes at the college and heads into the Clarendon Hills neighborhood, with a separate kids’ mile, so runners and walkers have parking and a gathering spot right at the start and finish.

Events Held Here

• Running: the Sweaty Sweater 5K run and walk in December, with a Kids 1-Mile for ages 12 and under.
• Disc golf: casual rounds on the 13-hole Gray Wolf Greens course, open to the public.
• Student recreation: sports and recreation clubs organized through FRCC Student Life.

Upcoming events at this venue are listed below.

Lessons, Coaching and Programs

FRCC’s fitness and wellness offerings are free for students and focus on healthy habits, social connection and learning. On the Larimer Campus that includes the disc golf course and disc rentals through Student Life, while students who want a full gym can join the nearby Colorado State University Recreation Center through the college’s partnership. The campus does not list public coaching programs of its own, so organizers bringing a clinic or camp should plan to supply their own coaches.

Planning Your Event Here

For a 5K or fun run, the campus lawns and lots give runners room to park, check in and gather near the start and finish, and the flat grounds keep the first and last stretch easy for walkers and families. Plan around the academic calendar, since weekday class hours bring heavy foot traffic, and keep courses on paths and public streets with volunteers at crossings. Disc golf groups should spread tee times across the 13 holes and remind players to yield to pedestrians. Contact the venue for current availability and any requirements for outside events.
