Carbon Valley Half Marathon & 5K Race Description

Colorado at its Best - the Carbon Valley Half Marathon will showcase the beauty & diversity of Colorado's best-kept secret nestled right between Denver & Fort Collins. Small town charm with Big City services, Firestone & Frederick are the perfect host for these 13.1 & 5K adventures. From Start to Finish, runners will tread upon Mining Town history via manicured trail systems, dirt paths, bridges & rural roads. Firestone's Central Park & the Firestone Trail are featured as well as Frederick's gorgeous Milevac Lake & Charming Downtown. The entire course has spectacular views of the Rockies and has a 2 mile downhill fast finish!  The 13.1 route is a certified course.

Every Half Marathon & 5K participant that registered 7 days prior to event get a Tech t-shirt, medal & goodie bag.  Participants receive a short-sleeved cotton t-shirt, Finishers Medal.  The first 500 Half/5K get goodie-bags!  Fun Runners get a cotton T-shirt.  A limited quantity of t-shirts may be available for purchase at the event.

Participants are asked to raise funds for Autism Research individually or as a team. Our goal is to raise $25,000 for the Autism Treatment Network thru Children's Hospital Colorado. We ask that each participant raise a minimum of $25 to donate to the cause.

Great Race - Great Course - Great Energy

I have been either a participant or have "coached" runners for this run for years now. Every year it's a hit! The course is well-marked. The pre and post food is great. And the beer garden - so awesome!!!

Age brackets

I love this race & what it is there to support. I am really unhappy that they decided this year to do away with age brackets. that was one of the reasons that I first did this race. I am 65 & without age brackets, I really don't have a chance. I hope they bring them back for next year!!!

Top-notch in all regards

This is an incredibly well run Colorado Event. Also, a course which offers great mountain views and quality mixed surfaces for its Athletes. Highly recommended as one of the best.

My husband and I have still not received our medals. Would love to know if we will get them. Loved the race and the people. Just disappointed we did not get out medals.
