About the A Run Through Time Trail Marathon
Salida's long-running spring trail marathon is a small, mountain-focused race that supports local trail and rescue groups. The marathon shares the day with shorter races, but its altitude and sustained climbing make it the weekend's main test.
Course
The route starts around 7,000 feet and stacks roughly 4,000 feet of climbing across exposed high-desert trails. Technical footing, long rollers, and altitude matter more than road pace, and runners need to manage the gaps between aid stations.
Race-day weather
A cold start can give way to strong high-altitude sun. Wind, lingering snow, mud, or dry dust are all plausible in early spring, so layers and flexible trail shoes make sense.
