The Run the Rockies Trail 10k and half marathon will lead runners through the Frisco Peninsula trails with breathtaking views of Lake Dillon and the Ten Mile Range. This is a great course for a first-time half-marathoner or runner looking for a fun course that offers single track and dirt road trails.
The Breck Epic is a series of 6 big backcountry loops (3 loops for the 3-day Epic-curious events), each between 35 and 50 miles long. The event is unique in that it uses a cloverleaf format; each loop starts and finishes within a mile from downtown Breckenridge and utilizes the sprawling network of trails in both Summit and Park Counties. The six stages are a well-rounded rider’s dream with long rhythmic climbs followed by endless descents.
The entire family can come out for one or all of the races throughout the summer: June 18, July 2, 16, 30. It's an entire evening of fun at the Frisco Adventure Park. There are three distances:
- Mini Goats (suggested for kids 4 years and under): .5 – 1.0 mile course
- Junior Goats (suggested for kids 5 years to 8 years): 1.5 – 2.0 miles course
- Senior Goats (suggested for kids 9 years – 13 years): 5k (3.1 miles) course
