Eerie Erie 5K/10K Free Race Entry

** The race entry giveaway promotion has ended. Congrats to Stephanie W and Jennifer J, winners of free entries to Eerie Erie. Thanks to all who entered, and don’t forget our other free race entry promotion on RacingColorado.com for the upcoming Red Thread Run.**
Get your costumes ready because the 26th Eerie Erie is just around the corner. Even better, Racing Colorado gives you the chance to get in with a free race entry!
Eerie Erie is Colorado’s oldest Halloween race, and is a true all-comer’s classic. With runners, strollers, trotters, & even pooches decked out in costumes, this is a race to really get in the “spirit” of the holiday. Add in a real cemetery in the course (not the spot to start walking!), and you have the recipe for a fun, classic Colorado running race.

Colorado Gold Mountain Biking

Another perfect Colorado cycling day.
Well, I did make it to Kenosha pass - along with seemingly every other mountain biker, hiker, walker, and dog. Truly, the Colorado Trail at Kenosha this weekend was the busiest trail in Colorado I’ve ever seen. But give me a day in the saddle on a busy, beautiful Colorado trail over a day in the ‘burbs any day! My advice: get out there while you can, but go on a weekday. The aspen are just amazing, and whether you need a training ride/run, or just a breath of fresh air, Kenosha pass is the most abundant groves close to the front range that I know of. Any others?
