RUN AMONG THE PEAKS
We all love a Colorado original - and nothing feels quite like running at altitude (literally)!
Four of Colorado's most beloved half marathons, plus one unforgettable 25K, have joined forces with HAL Sports to create the Colorado Mountain Half+ Series!
This isn't just a series of races. It's an invitation to Run Among the Peaks! And what's more, the invitation is super flexible: sign up for any 3, 4, or ALL 5 events!
From breathtaking views to challenging climbs, each course showcases Colorado at its best - challenging, inspiring, and unforgettable. Some will take your best effort, but all of them will have you bragging about your success every chance you get!
What's more: every event in the series is proudly organized by nonprofits that support local youth programs, meaning every mile you run helps strengthen our communities and the next generation.
Why should you register for the Series?
~Because you're not afraid of a little altitude!
~Because you want to explore our beautiful State.
~Because collecting points at every race and chasing series awards sounds way more fun that sitting on the couch!
~AND because medals look way better at altitude.

Event Descriptions
It all starts on June 21st with the Estes Park Half Marathon, part of the Estes Park Marathon weekend of events, with something for the entire family. Run the original, in one of the most beautiful town landscapes, known for its resident elk herd and the ever-famous Stanley Hotel. All are situated at the base of Rocky Mountain National Park.
Next test your speed at one of Colorado’s oldest half marathons, the 48th Annual Georgetown to Idaho Springs Half Marathon (known as GTIS Half) takes place on August 8th. You will start at beautiful Georgetown Lake in the shadows of towering Rocky Mountains as you cruise through a mostly downhill and fast course into iconic Idaho Springs.
The series then heads to the "Switzerland of America" with the Mt. Sneffels Half Marathon on August 15th. This course will take you on a journey between some of the most spectacular mountain ranges and views in the US through the area's valley on a declining course. You might even see a camel and a yak out along the course (true story).
Next up is the 44th Annual Ned Ned Half Marathon in Nederland on September 12th. Nederland is known for its amazing beauty. It is nestled in a valley cut out by glaciers; you will run mostly on trails in beautiful national forests with Barker Reservoir as your backdrop.
Wrapping up our series is our "+" event, the Lead King Loop 25K (15.5 Miles) on September 13th. This is an iconic and favorite event for many runners and hikers. You will experience some of the most amazing fall colors in one of the most beautiful areas of Colorado. Your efforts will be rewarded with serenity, BBQ, and beer (for those 21 and over).
Register for 3, 4, or all five iconic events, we promise, they will take your breath away (in one way or another)!
