The Durango Brewers Trail Series is built on a simple idea: running is better together. By connecting local runners, breweries, and nonprofits, we’re creating something bigger than a race—a summer tradition that celebrates everything that makes Durango special.
So grab your friends, lace up your trail shoes, and get ready for a summer of dirt, sweat, and great beer.
Run one. Or run them all. Just don’t miss it.
