Whether you want to run like mad, or inhale the fabulous panorama, you don't want to miss this unique Red Rocks event! We start with a 5K over rugged terrain-a definite challenge for your lungs. And for those of you who love our stair climbs, we incorporated those famous Red Rocks stairs just for you. Yep, you'll get to climb them as you finish the course.
