Run the Republic 2009 - Feb. 22, 2009. Now you can say you've climbed the tallest building in the Rocky Mountain West - the Republic Plaza in downtown
Denver.

Usually, the building's stairwell is closed to the public, but we'll unchain the doors and let you climb all the way to the 53rd floor and then take the elevator back
down to the lobby for food, interactive booths and fun.

Run the Republic raises funds for lung health issues that are more critical now than ever before. Lung disease is the third leading cause of death in the United
States. While the death rates of cancer and heart disease are decreasing, deaths from lung disease are increasing at an alarming rate. Please join us this
February 22 and help us turn the trend around.

Sky Mesa Pass Trail Marathon
Gateway, Colorado
May 16, 2009



The race will begin at the mouth of Sinbad Valley on 7.2 Road ( Sinbad Valley Road ) located 10 miles south of Gateway Canyons. This first annual
race will attract approximately 100 runners from around the region. Trail running and especially long distance trail running events are highly desired
and attract top athletes and "nature lovers". A trail marathon is especially more difficult than a road marathon; this is the attraction.

The course will take the runners up the county road into Sinbad Valley through a beautiful red rock canyon with towering Wingate Sandstone walls.
The south side of the county road forms the border of the Sewemup Mesa Wilderness Study Area and follows Salt Creek which at times can be nearly
as salty as the ocean.
