The 50 mile course will start/finish at Buffalo Bike Lodge in Colorado Springs. Runners head into Garden of the Gods, past balanced rock, and turn onto Rampart Range Road to begin their long climb up to Rampart Reservoir. Runners will gain ~4000 feet in their 19.5 mile climb up to the Rainbow Gulch Trailhead before enjoying a short descent to the reservoir, where they’ll savor the singletrack with views of the water as they make their way around the reservoir and climb back up to the Rainbow Gulch Trailhead. From there, it’s a screaming descent back down Rampart Range Road to cross the finish line at Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort, where they’ll be welcomed by live music, cold drinks, and a good ol’ Ram Party.
On Sunday, Heavy Half & Heavy Marathon runners start their day from the Rainbow Gulch Trailhead in Woodland Park. Runners will enjoy all the singletrack and views they can soak in as they make their way around the reservoir either once (half) or twice (marathon).
