Samson's Revenge - Estes Park, CO

Samson's Revenge is a trail running event held on the YMCA of the Rockies grounds in Estes Park, CO on May 23, 2026. The start and finish are in front of the Administration building at 2515 Tunnel Road. Parking is plentiful in paved lots. An email will be sent to participants race week with additional information.

The course uses a roughly 10 kilometer loop that gains about 1,200 feet per loop, with most of that gain on the Bible Point ascent. Loops used for the longer distances (loops two through six) are a little shorter and run on flowing single track, packed dirt, and a short section of gravel. There are two aid stations, located at the start/finish and at the top of Bible Point; both provide water, electrolyte drink, and a variety of snacks and food. All registrations include a $29 day pass to the YMCA of the Rockies grounds. All runners receive a custom Fractel hat and wool finisher socks.
