Take in the stunning trails of Roxborough State Park, including dramatic
red-rock formations, distinct plant communities, and a host of wildlife
ranging from black bears to mule deer, while running to benefit the
Aurora Theatre Victims! The course consists of a 10 mile loop trail,
with a mix of technical trail and graded dirt track. Runners will be
challenged with 1000 foot elevation gain in the first 5 miles, then will
be rewarded with some stunning views of Roxborough park, and descend
back through grassy meadows to the main aid station and completion of
the first loop. Runners will then head out on graded park road for the
second loop of the course, and easy 2 mile loop offering picturesque
views of the park's magnificent red rock formations. Using a cloverleaf
pattern, runners will pass aid stations fully stocked with water, Enduralytes, HEED, fruit, bagels, cake, cookies, soda,
and a host of other goodies, 3, 7 and 10 miles into the
course. (Runners will pass aid stations several times as the loop is
run a total of 5 times. The aid station also operates as a drop station
for runners own drop bags. The race cutoff (for both races) is 12 hours, and last loop
cutoff is at 5 pm.
100% of proceeds of this event go to the Colorado Office for Victims Assistance to benefit the victims of the Aurora Theatre Shooting. As this race is entirely supported through sponsorship efforts, donations and volunteer support are welcomed to promote and host this event.
