The Pikes Peak Ascent is a grueling 13.3 mile race from Manitou Springs, Colorado, to the 14,115 foot summit of Pikes Peak.

With a vertical climb of 7,800 feet up the historic Barr Trail, this is NOT your typical half marathon!

Beginning in downtown Manitou Springs, the course proceeds along approximately 1.5 miles of road before joining into Pikes Peak\\\\\\\'s Barr Trail.

This is where the real adventure begins.

With an average grade of 11%, the trail is often narrow, winding, or steep and may be gravel, rock or dirt with sharp turns and abrupt changes in elevation or direction.

However, there are no exposed ledges, so there is little danger of falling off the trail!

Keep in mind, there is no vehicle access to most of Barr Trail, so to ensure the safety of our runners and volunteers, all participants are required to complete a qualifying event before registering.

Come celebrate the 11th Annual Colorado Springs Marathon presented by Centura Health.

Whether you are a seasoned runner or looking to tackle your first 5k, we have you covered with 4 events to choose from.

The courses will showcase the city of Colorado Springs, taking runners past historic monuments, through beautiful parks and culminates in the heart of downtown at the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum where the post-race celebration awaits.

This family-friendly race is a premiere endurance running event, attracting people from all over the country.

Secure your spot today before events sell out (race has completely sold out the past two years)!

It's that time again!! Time for the Palmer Lake .5K, “The Race for the Rest of Us”!

Walk, run, skip, or crawl, it is still a whopping 500 meters in the picturesque setting of Palmer Lake. As usual, we encourage, and perhaps reward, kooky and fun (and family friendly) costumes and get ups. Dogs are welcome, but only good dogs (we’ve seen a few cats over the years too, we don’t discriminate), and you can sign them up to receive a one-of-a-kind bandana, and maybe even a treat!

Mark your calendars and don’t miss this one, as it is our 10th year “running” extravaganza, and this year promises to be bigger and better than ever.

We will have great tunes at the start line from Sunny FM, and the fun continues at O’Malley’s after the race with a DJ and dancing. Vintage (and not-so-vintage) t-shirts will be available for purchase, and as always, the proceeds all go a worthy cause, helping Awake Palmer Lake fund improvements to Palmer Lake and the park that surrounds it – just check out the nearly completed Palmer Lake Pickleball Courts and public restrooms while you grind your way through 50,000 centimeters of grueling competition. And don’t worry, as always, we’ll provide a carb-loading donut in the middle to help you make it to the finish where that cold beverage awaits! Don’t forget to check out all our sponsors at the finish line, they help make this silly fun possible!

As usual, the Palmer Lake .5K (yes, “point”) packs as much fun as humanly possible into less than an hour on the course, followed by more fun at O’Malley’s.

See you there!
