Join Aravaipa Colorado for the first 100-miler in Colorado Springs! The inaugural year of Ring the Springs will be an epic journey with both strenuous mountain climbing and a city-wide tour through the best parks and open spaces Colorado Springs has to offer.

Don't be fooled--while the steep vert comes in the first half as runners top out on Mt. Rosa, the second half offers close to 7,000 feet of climbing. That means our 50-milers taking the city tour will also feel the burn as they traverse through Palmer Park, Austin Bluffs Open Space, Ute Valley Park and Garden of the Gods. Runners will start/finish at the epicenter of downtown Colorado Springs in America the Beautiful Park.

Not running but want to experience the magic? Sign up to volunteer!  It's guaranteed to be a good time, and you'll earn race credits.

Stay tuned for more information about a pre-race expo open to the public, featuring Colorado trail running companies, local non-profit groups, great food, and breweries!
