Join us for another amazing year!
Georgetown to Idaho Springs Half Marathon is a Colorado Runner’s Must-Do event. This iconic Half Marathon is one of the most pleasurable races in the western US. The *point-to-point course is a scenic and gently rolling mountain course that winds down the Clear Creek Valley -- starting at an elevation of 8,500ft. at Georgetown Lake and ending at an elevation of 7,500ft. in Idaho Springs, with one hill of a finish!
This event is hosted by the Clear Creek Booster Club, and it is planned by parent volunteers. Proceeds from the GTIS Half Marathon go directly to supporting middle school and high school students in Clear Creek County.
This is Colorado at its best!

Start Line Information
Race Start
We will once again host a rolling wave start, releasing small groups about every 5-10 minutes. This best suits the path in the early part of the course.
YOU get to select your arrival to the start area during registration. The cutoff for each wave start will be at the discretion of the race organizers and the start line announcer. Upon arrival to the start area, prepare yourself and enter the start corral when you are ready.
Please visit the event website for more details about buses, parking, and transportation.
7:00 a.m. First wave start
7:15 a.m. Second wave start
...this will continue every 5-10 minutes until 8:30AM. Wave capacities are limited, as are seats on the early buses so please encourage friends and family to sign up along with you so that you can all gather at the bus loading and/or start line together.
The course will close at 12PM, please keep this in mind when planning your day. Register early if you need to maximize the time allotted on the course.
