Four times an Olympic trials qualifier! Colorado Springs runner Patrick Rizzo is our December "The Runner Box" Colorado Runner of the Month.

Conditions could not have been more perfect for the Pumpkin Pie 5K and 10K this past Saturday, resulting in two new course records set in the 5K by Andy Wacker and Clarissa Whiting. Hosted by Colorado Runner Events, the 5K event hosted the USATF Colorado State Championship, providing a $900 prize purse for current USATF members.

The Veterans Day celebration started early this year, with the Denver Veterans Day Run kicking off on Sunday in City Park. The annual event is hosted by the Colorado Veterans Project, whose mission is to enhance pride and patriotism in all Coloradans by building a stronger, more supportive community around our Veterans. The parade and festival will take place on Saturday, November 11th.

Welcome to Colorado, Chris Mocko! The Stanford alum recently relocated from the Bay Area to Boulder, and has already won two trail races here. He is this month’s “The Runner Box” Colorado runner of the month. See what the carefree ultrarunner has to stay about the Centennial State, so far.

Calling Matt and Molly Smith a "Power Couple" is a gross understatement. Not only are they accomplished triathletes traveling the world to compete (and win!) at championship races, but they are deeply rooted in the Colorado running and triathlon communities.

Cool, fall temperatures, a setting sun, and pleasant conditions provided the perfect backdrop for the Hoofin' It Through the Hollows 5K and after-party. Almost 300 participants came out to deKoevend Park in Centennial - some dressed in their best costumes and others just looking forward to a festive event with a host of activities on deck.

A battle to the finish line and an unexpected winner were the stories at the front of the pack at Sunday’s Transamerica Rock ‘n’ Roll Denver Half Marathon. More than 7,000 runners took part in the 8th annual race weekend, which featured a 5K on Saturday and a 10K and half marathon on Sunday.

On September 30 in Wisconsin, Ashley Brasovan became a national champion, again! Now living in Westminster, the 2007 Footlocker cross country champion tells us how she came to be racing trails, training in Colorado, and what's next. Brasovan is our October "The Runner Box" Colorado Runner of the Month.
