Race Sponsorships for 2011
Leadville Race Series:
Having started with the Leadville Trail 100 with just 45 runners in 1983, the Leadville Race Series now stretches across three months, and hosts thousands of racers on foot and in the saddle. Endurance athletes worldwide now make the pilgrimage to Leadville, Colorado, with the single goal of competing in a “Race Across the Sky.”
Scenic City Trail Marathon and ½ Marathon: Put on by Rock/Creek Outfitters in Chattanooga, Tennessee, the Scenic City Trail Marathon will set the bar for a state record in trail running. The trails at Raccoon are fast and forgiving, making for a leisurely race for new trail runners or a full-on speed fest for those in the hunt for the first state record for a trail race. Proceeds benefit Wild Trails, an organization dedicated to the use, expansion and promotion of trails in greater Chattanooga.
Vasque Golden Leaf Marathon: Presented by Ute Mountaineer & City of Aspen Special Events this race was voted by Colorado Runner as the Best Half Marathon & chosen by Trail Runner Magazine as one of "America's 14 most scenic races". The Golden Leaf is one of the most beautiful foot races in the Rockies. This 13.1 mile half marathon traverses from Snowmass Village to the heart of Aspen on mountain trails and roads at the height of Colorado's breathtaking fall colors.
Rock/Creek StumpJump: Come run the premier 50k trail race in the Southeast. Taking place on a beautiful dirt-packed trail with Tennessee mountain stone thrown in -- and with a 5000+ ft. elevation gain -- the Rock/Creek StumpJump 50k benefits Wild Trails for trail access and maintenance efforts in the Chattanooga area. Looking for a shorter race on the same beautiful trail? You're in luck! There will be an 11-mile course offered as well. Proceeds benefit Wild Trails, an organization dedicated to the use, expansion and promotion of trails in greater Chattanooga.
