Run the Rockies Road 10k & Half Marathon
The Run the Rockies Road race returns for its 52nd edition along the Summit County recreation path from the Copper Mountain area into Frisco. The course follows the paved path through Ten Mile Canyon and alongside Ten Mile Creek, a route noted for fall foliage and varied mountain scenery.
Both distances use mass starts and have a strict finish cut-off. Packet pick-up is available in Frisco prior to race day and on race morning; early pick-up is recommended. Runners drive to the Copper Mountain Far East parking area for the starts, and a shuttle service returns participants to their vehicles after the event. Drop bags may be left at the starts and will be transported to Frisco Historic Park for retrieval.
Registration opens online on April 15, 2026, with limited day-of entry if space remains. Registration fees include a commemorative gift, a finisher item, professional timing, stocked aid stations, post-race food, and beer for participants 21 and older. Aid stations provide hydration mix, water, and small snacks; the half marathon has multiple stations while the 10k has one.
The event recognizes overall male and female winners and awards prizes for first place in multiple age categories. Participants should be prepared for mountain terrain, variable weather, and shared-use trail etiquette. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
