Event Details

With its seven-hour time limit for the full marathon event, the Estes Park Marathon & Half Marathon advertises itself as an event welcome to both beginners and experienced runners, and (at 7,550 feet above sea level) as one of the world's highest-altitude marathon events. Each of the four races -- the full marathon, half-marathon, 10K and 5K road races -- start and finish at Estes Park High School, and the course for the half takes runners through beautifully scenic areas with wooded, tree-lined stretches and views of nearby Longs Peak and Mount Meeker. The course for the half and the full is mostly flat or features a gentle, sloping downhill, with some gradual uphills.

Race Weather & Climate

The early days of summer tend to offer cool to moderately warm weather for the event, with June temperatures that average between 42°F and 73°F. Rainfall is low during this time of year, as the Estes Park area averages less than 1 1/2 inches of precipitation during the month.
