Road Runs  these courses have been designed to be runner friendly. Starting on College Mesa the the marathon and half marathon courses quickly, but gently, drop 360 feet in elevation as you make your way to Animas Surgical Hospital where you'll join the river trail. This is the biggest elevation change on the courses.  The marathon course features a visit to Ska Brewing. Both the marahton and half marathon finish downtown at Buckley Park where runners will be trated to a post-race party and celebration.
 
Unmatched for beauty, you'll agree that Durango is truly a runner's paradise.
