In the summer months, my rule of thumb is if I am running <15 miles I generally don't carry anything, unless it is really hot. Over 15 miles and I use my Nathan belt. I like the Nathan belt, but I still hate having something on my waist and I often get some chaffing on the waist.

Elite runners have begun to line up for the USATF Colorado 10-mile championships. The men’s field is especially fast.

Local racing action was again limited, but a handful of Colorado elites competed in Albuquerque at the US indoor championships. Colorado men raced their indoor regional meet. Adriana Nelson and Adrienne Herzog went to Puerto Rico for the World's Best 10K. And the state's best stair climbers raced to the top of the Denver skyline. Here's the weekend's highlights. ...
