24 Hours of Palmer Lake : event overview
24 Hours of Palmer Lake is a 24 hour endurance run held at Palmer Lake, Colorado, on a 0.82 mile loop course situated on the Palmer Divide at an elevation of 7,240 feet. The course runs through a mountain-surrounded area near 199 County Line Rd.
The event is organized as a low fanfare, community-driven gathering focused on continuous running over a 24 hour period. Participants may aim to cover the greatest distance within 24 hours, attempt a personal distance record, or use the event to test race nutrition and pacing strategies.
Awards are given to the top three overall finishers by distance covered in the 24 hour period. Runners who reach 100 miles during the event are eligible for a buckle; the first ten to complete 100 miles will receive a buckle onsite, with additional qualifying runners receiving buckles a few weeks after the event.
The event policy states that refunds are not offered, though the organizers may provide a credit toward the following year with at least a couple of weeks notice. For each registration, five dollars will be donated to the Palmer Lake Parks Committee to support local park improvements. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
