Telluride Mountain Run
Telluride, United States • 24 Aug 2024
The Telluride Mountain Run is a challenging and technical race in the San Juan Mountains above Telluride, Colorado, offering three routes of 40, 24, and 13 miles. Runners will traverse old mining roads, singletrack, and alpine tundra over mountain passes, exposed ridgelines, and high summits. The race features big elevation gains at altitudes above 13,000 ft, providing a unique and rewarding experience for participants. It is emphasized that this is a technical mountain race, not a trail run, with sections that are extremely steep, rocky, and exposed to falls and hazardous weather. Safety personnel will be present, but participants are expected to prioritize their safety. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
