Royal Gorge Groove

Experience the ultimate adventure at the Royal Gorge Groove in Cañon City, featuring spectacular views and challenging terrain along the rim of the Royal Gorge. Delve into the rich history of this iconic location, known as the "Grand Canyon of the Arkansas," while navigating technical trails and rolling hills. With race distances ranging from a 5K to a 50K ultra, runners of all levels can enjoy this rugged and unique running experience. Be prepared for cooler weather and the possibility of snow, and don't miss out on the gender-specific race shirt, chip-timed results, scenic courses, aid stations, and custom finisher medal. Bring your crew for support, but no pacers allowed. Awards await the top finishers, and volunteers are welcome to contribute to this unforgettable event. Stay safe with on-site medical support and enjoy a day of history, nature, and running at the Royal Gorge Groove.
