Gemini News 24 Hours of Boulder

Boulder Marathoners

We were sorry to hear that there will be no road events in Boulder for the rest of the year, but completely understand that our city needs to use it’s resources where they are so desperately needed right now. We feel fortunate that our 24 Hours of Boulder event is completely held at the Boulder Reservoir and can continue. We’d like to give cancelled Boulder Marathon runners an opportunity to test their training. Pre-register in the 100k relay category and you’ll get a 50% discount on the race! Just choose how many 7 mile laps you’d like to complete and we’ll assign you to a team. Click on the registration tab and specify that you’d like to run on the “Boulder Marathon 100k Relay Team”. Let’s bring back some of the positive outdoors energy that Boulder thrives on!
