Welcome to the 15th year of the Grand Prix of Running. Please join with us for 6 exciting and challenging running events. Run one race, or run them all! It promises to be another exciting year of running! We are expecting nearly 5000 runners to participate in 2012. Starting in March with the 5K on St. Patrick's Day and ending with the "Pumpkin Run" in October, we cover the Colorado running season.

This last year garnered a great deal of recognition for the Grand Prix Series. In 2011 The 5K on St. Patrick's Day was recognized by Runner's World Magazine as the national "Run of the Month" for March. The Trail Runner Series included two Grand Prix Races--the Classic 10K and the Top Ten Mile” in their national "Trophy Series."  The Colorado Runner Racing Series included the Take 5 in the Garden 5Mile and the Classic 10K as part of their 2011 Series!

We are very happy to announce that the "5K on St. Patrick's Day" was named the "Colorado's Best 5 Kilometer Race of 2011!" by Colorado Runner magazine.

This year the Classic 10K will be included again as one of the races to compete in the “Colorado Runner” Racing Series; and two races—the Classic 10K and the Top Ten Mile—will be in the national “Trophy Series” …Wow! Looks like 2012 will be just as exciting as 2011!

So, from all of our volunteers and sponsors Welcome to the Grand Prix! Remember that 90% of being successful is showing up!!   Run one race, or run them all!   We will see you at the Races!   For those of you who want to participate in a Series we have a Short Series and a Long Series to run in.   You must run all of the races as outlined below.
