Bound for Boston Marathon & Half Marathon - Denver
The event is built around a 1 mile flat loop on the grounds of Northfield High School. It offers multiple entry options including a full marathon, a half marathon, and a virtual event. The full marathon is USATF certified and serves as a Boston qualifying race. The event is deliberately limited in size with a total cap of 150 participants to emphasize fast efforts and a focused race environment.
Timing is chip timed for start and finish, with chip timed splits every mile. Mile split times are shown on timing clocks as runners pass each mile point to help pacing. The course carries a four hour time limit for completion. Music and entertainment are provided along the loop to reduce repetition during multiple laps.
Practical race notes include running tangents to minimize distance and keeping to the right when walking or running slower so faster participants can use the shortest path. Virtual participants submit times by the end of race day; shirts and medals for virtual entries are mailed after the event weekend. Participants who register by the organizer deadline are guaranteed event apparel in their selected size while later registrations receive swag as supplies last.
