Event summary
Get ready for the 22nd Annual Run Through Time Trail Marathon and Half Marathon, set to take place on Saturday, March 13, 2027, in the beautiful town of Salida, Colorado! This exhilarating event promises a stunning backdrop of the Arkansas Valley, featuring challenging courses that showcase dirt jeep roads and narrow, hilly single-track paths at elevations ranging from 7,000 to 9,000 feet. With a combined limit of 500 participants for the marathon and half marathon, runners will experience the thrill of competition while enjoying breathtaking views.
This year, the half marathon introduces a single time cutoff at the mile 6.1 aid station, requiring runners to reach it within 2 hours and 20 minutes to continue. The marathon maintains its two time cutoffs, ensuring a well-organized experience for all participants. Both races offer prizes for the top three finishers in each category and age group, along with custom race socks for every registered runner. After crossing the finish line, enjoy a light hot meal as a reward for your hard work. Additionally, don't miss the 2 Mile Run and a free 400-meter kids run in Riverside Park. Join us in supporting local charities, as proceeds from the event benefit Salida
