Rim to Rim Royal Gorge Trail Run (approximately 8 miles)
This trail is an 8ish mile event. This race will be capped at 100 participants since it is our first ever trail event. We didn't want to go out too fast (pun intended) for our first trail event. This race will begin at the same starting place as our 5K/10K races, however, will begin15 mins earlier. We are so thrilled about this addition. We will have a course map soon! The race will go out of the main parking lot of the Royal Gorge Bridge & Park and run approximately.5 miles before dropping onto the trail, Twisted Cistern for approximately 1.6 miles. Runners will then do a 3.1 mile loop on Made in the Shade before returning to go back up Twisted Cistern and then make their way across the Royal Gorge Bridge to the finish line
Rim to Rim Royal Gorge Half Marathon
This half marathon has a challenging course with approximately 2, 311 feet of overall elevation gain. There will be aid stations with snacks and water/Gatorade, however, please be prepared for a challenging course.
