24 Hours Of Palmer Lake

24 Hours of Palmer Lake

24 Hours of Palmer Lake is a 24-hour endurance race held in Palmer Lake, CO on September 26, 2026. Participants run repeated laps of a 0.82 mile loop on the Palmer Divide at an elevation of 7,240 feet, with the course set among surrounding mountains.

The event is organized as a community-driven gathering with minimal fanfare and is presented as an opportunity to compete for distance, set a personal distance record, or test race nutrition and pacing strategies. Awards are given to the top three overall finishers based on distance covered in the 24-hour period.

The first ten runners who complete 100 miles or more within 24 hours are guaranteed a buckle on site; additional qualifiers will receive their buckle a few weeks after the event. Organizers do not offer refunds; with at least a couple of weeks notice they may provide a credit toward the following year. $5 from every registration is donated to the Palmer Lake Parks Committee to support local park improvements.

Registration is available through the event listing and closes on Fri, Sep 25, 2026 at 11:59 PM MT. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
