About the Long View Marathon
This point-to-point northern Colorado race connects two neighboring cities through their regional trail network. A small field, straightforward shuttle plan, and finish in Loveland define the experience.
Course
The certified route starts in Fort Collins and finishes in Loveland, gaining about 625 feet and losing about 631. Paved trails dominate, with nine fluid stations and long sections suited to controlled pacing.
Race-day weather
October can begin near freezing and warm rapidly in the high-altitude sun. Wind across open trail corridors can turn the nominally balanced profile into a tactical race.
