"This is the only USA Track and Field Championship event in the Rocky Mountain region in 2008. It will be the premier running event in Colorado this summer and will attract some of the top runners in the nation as we're offering not only USATF national championship awards, but over $10,000 in prize money and other prizes including Vasque trail running shoes and SmartWool shirts," stated John Chapman, Race Director. This year's event will be held at Howelsen Hill in Steamboat Springs on June 29th at 8:30 a.m.. The format is very much like a cross country championship event in that this mountain course is a four kilometer course where men will run three loops (12 km) and women and juniors will run two loops (8 km). The event will also have a post race buffet provided by Qdoba and live music. "This is not an easy course, and will require some true grit for the top competitors to run the entire course, including a climb straight up the Howelsen Hill ski area on each lap," said Denver resident Adam Feerst, Assistant Race Director. "This is not a road race. It's a true mountain race, with steep climbs and descents, a few flat sections, and a mix of smooth and technical footing - all the aspects of trail running that make this sport so much fun." Adam further added. This event is open to both USATF and non-USATF runners.
