About the race
Weld Your Mettle Running Festival is a multi day event held in Eaton, Colorado on a private property. The site includes glamping tent options, campsites, a sauna, cold plunges, food, drinks and on site entertainment such as a film screening and bonfires. The venue address is 11586 Co Rd 80, Eaton CO 80615, United States.
The festival offers a mix of timed races, distance events, relays, a ruck event, a walk or run option, and a virtual race. Several events are run as repeated laps on a loop course or as out and back segments; the 7k course is a 2 mile out and back completed twice. The 7K ruck requires a 35 lb weighted vest. Some events include time cutoffs, for example a 5 hour cutoff for the 14 mile event, an 8 hour cutoff for the marathon, a 10 hour cutoff for the 50K, a 14 hour cutoff for the 50 mile, a 24 hour cutoff for 100K, and a 36 hour cutoff for the 100 mile events. The 36 hour virtual and timed events allow participants to run or walk for the event duration; finishers who complete 50K or more may receive a belt buckle.
