About the Estes Park Marathon

Estes Park Marathon is a mountain-town road marathon near Rocky Mountain National Park, with an early point-to-point feel, shuttle logistics, and a demanding six-hour course window.

Course

The marathon starts near The Dao House on CO-7 and opens with a long descent before the climbing and altitude make the later miles much harder than a flat road race. The course closes at 11:00 a.m.

Race-day weather

Race morning can be cool before sunrise, then change quickly with altitude, sun, and mountain wind. Layers and conservative early pacing matter more than the downhill start suggests.
