The Run Through Colorado Challenge

You can take on the CO Trail as an individual, a 2 or 4 person team, or both!   We'll track each other along the map and leaderboard - along the way get pictures, facts, and camraderie real or virtual.   

Prize money for pros, random giveaways for all.  And in addition to your bandana and bib, you get a special piece TBA -  something real and homegrown, possibly useful for eating, working with, hanging on your wall, and/or defending yourself against a wild animal (not officially recommended).    A different piece for each challenge, one that says "Colorado".
