The Gaylord Gauntlet 5k Trail and Obstacle Run is an annual race held on the Wallingford, CT 400-acre campus of Gaylord Specialty Healthcare, a 137-bed long-term acute care hospital with services for people who experience a life-changing injury or illness. The event is a cornerstone fundraiser of the Hospital, raising funds to benefit the Gaylord Sports Association, a group dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with physical disabilities through adaptive sports and recreation.
The Gauntlet course is a blend of wooden trail and open field running with 24 natural and manmade obstacles. The entire event is coordinated and built by Gaylord Hospital staff & volunteers and includes a Festival Area with local vendors, live music, and food trucks.
The Gaylord Gauntlet is a community event. Runners of all abilities are encouraged to participate.
