Colorado Races

by Andrea Hill on March 6, 2009 · Comments

I swear, I was just looking for shorter local races! But I came across a few upcoming marathons:

Colorado Marathon – Ft Collins, May 3rd.

Colorado Colfax Marathon – May 17. Basically an out and back on Colfax avenue!

Estes Park – June 14.

I’ve stopped caring as much about course profile, but I thought the profiles above were interesting — evidently Coloradans like net downhill races!

i think i'd be looking for all the extra help i can get in a race at altitude too! hope you still looking for actual short races and haven't gotten sucked into the marathon craze with all your training ;) i'd understand if you had, whenever i research marathons i start thinking oh i can run all of these in 2 months, no problem. (riiiight)

I’ll be honest, I really prefer the marathon distance to anything else. A few years ago I was sponsored by a team to run their shorter distance runs, and I never really did well, b/c I’d rather go for the longer distances.
And I HAVE done three-in-three-weeks and three-in-four-weeks, so yeah… a marathon every two weeks seems to make total sense! ;-)
