Summit 200
The Summit 200 is a single, non-repetitive 200 mile loop around Summit County, Colorado, run mostly on hiking trails, single-track and infrequently traveled forest roads, with sections on 4WD roads and recreational paths. The course stays at high elevation, with the lowest points above 9,000 feet and portions exceeding 12,700 feet. Over the full route runners experience roughly 40,000 feet of cumulative climbing and descending.
The event is organized as a multi-day mountain ultra with a field cap initially set at 75 runners and the potential to increase to 100. Organizers provide 12 full aid stations, 4 sleep stations, drop bag support, and live GPS tracking; each participant is issued a Garmin Messenger. Aid stations serve made-to-order hot food at most locations and include vegan options. The course includes long stretches without aid and requires prior completion of a 100 mile race. A 110 hour overall cutoff applies.
The race takes place on National Forest lands and Summit County lands. Finishers receive event-specific merchandise including a finisher buckle and a finisher jacket with a year specific patch. The event materials mention professional photography, event swag, and a runner’s manual with full rules and policies. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
