Game Day 5K Course:
The starting line is located on Colorado Ave. near the intersection with Tejon St. in downtown Colorado Springs. This is an out-and-back course that leads runners behind the Antler's Hotel to Sierra Madre St., then north to catch the Pikes Peak Greenway Trail. The 5K turnaround is just south of Uintah St. On the way, you'll pass through our very rowdy "Tailgate Party Aid Station," where some of the more leisurely runners have been known to linger. When you know, you'll know. Finish up at America the Beautiful Park.
This course is 3.43 miles, mostly flat and fast. There is one aid station at about 1.5 miles. There is one porta potty at the aid station.
Half Marathon Course:

Post-race Celebration:
Join us after your race at Jack Quinn's Irish Pub (21 S. Tejon) for our awards ceremony and a great runner party.
