Join us for the 2024 Garden of the Gods 10 Mile, 10K & Trail Races!Race registration will open on March 1, 2024.
The Garden of the Gods Ten Mile Run® is the premier race of Colorado Springs! For 46 years, the Garden of the Gods has been a spectacular setting for this physically demanding race.
Pick from 3 courses:
10 Mile Road
10K Road
10K Trail
The 10M/10K course will loop runners through the spectacular Garden of the Gods Park. With a low point of 6,210′ and a high point of 6,530′ in elevation, runners are physically challenged with almost 1,000 feet of total elevation gain on the 10M course. The races are run primarily on asphalt roads, with a small portion on a concrete walkway or gravel road.
The 10K race start is the same as the road races, but runners will quickly turn onto the dirt, where underfoot, they will find gravel, rocks, and roots. The trail takes runners around the Homestead Trail before winding through the Valley Reservoir area and crossing Ridge Rd. onto the central trails of the Garden. The views of Pikes Peak and the surrounding rock formations of Garden of the Gods are unsurpassed.
Each of the race courses start at the main entrance to the park and share a common finish in historic Rock Ledge Ranch where the post-race party begins. Food, beer, music, and vendors, surrounded by the beauty of the Ranch and Garden, give runners and their families and friends a place to stay and enjoy an amazing post-race experience.
