Known in past years as the Middle Park Half Marathon, the Winter Park Half takes runners on an out-and-back lollipop-style course that starts and finishes at the Village at Grand Park. From there they head out on a route that’s mostly backcountry roads with some trail routes mixed in, including Elk Creek and Leland Creek Trails. The out-and-back portion also takes runners along Highway 72.
