RMRR 9 Mile and 5K Race at Prairie Gateway Open Space Park

Rocky Mountain Road Runners holds a monthly Trophy Series in the Denver area.  We provide a low-key, low-cost racing environment. Everyone is welcome to run with us!

The 15km race uses a handicap start system, slow-to-fast, spread over ~50 minutes. This gives everyone a chance to win. We'll use your estimated finish time to assign you a start time with others the same speed.

All 5k racers will start ~25min after the first 15km starters.

Our November race will run in Denver's Prairie Gateway Open Space Park. Racers may choose between the 15k or the 5k race.  Do plan to arrive at least 45 minutes before race start to get your bib and complete registration.
