Boulder Peaks Triathlon/Duathlon Besides the aforementioned Bolder Boulder, there are well-organized races virtually every USATF Cross Country Championships (2007, weekend: the Boulder Backroads Marathon and Half Marathon, 5K Kickoff Classic, West End 3K, Pearl Street Mile, Rocky Mountain Shootout, Uni-Hill Downtown 1K, Sunrise Stampede 2014, 2015) 10K, and Boulder Roadrunners All-Comers Track Series. In February of 2007, Boulder hosted the USA Cross Country Championships which selected our national teams for the IAAF World Championships in Mombasa, . The crowd of 10,000 spectators was estimated to exceed the combined attendance of the previous five national championships. Former USA Track and Field President Bill Roe remarked, “As usual, every time I come to Boulder I’m blown away.” , 19-time U.S. champion, captured her eighth cross country title and said, “This was, hands down, the most amazing national championship I’ve been a part of.” Beyond the attendance, the most compelling story of the day was arguably the success of CU’s alumni: former Buffaloes swept the top four places in the men’s senior race while two former NCAA champion Buffaloes qualified for the senior women’s team. The USATF returned to Boulder in 2014 and ‘15 for the the USA Cross Country Championships, which again were two of the best attended meets. In May of 2008, the University of Colorado hosted the Big 12 Conference Track and Field Championships. This three-day competition was one of the most prestigious and competitive meets in the country and featured NCAA champions, World Championship Team members and 2008 Olympians. During the competition, ten Big 12 meet records were broken and two world- leading marks were established. The three-day attendance of over 5,000 cheered the Colorado men to the team title in a victory over No. 1 ranked Texas A&M. The Buffs hosted the 2013 Pac- 12 Cross Country Championship in 2013 in Louisville, Colo. at Coal Creek Golf Course. The CU men won the meet for the third straight year in front of a crowd of just over 5,000, while the CU women took second by just six points. Summer or winter, cross country or track season, workout day or racing day, for the weekend warrior or the Olympian, Boulder presents the ideal environment. While other cities may claim occasional weekends of running enthusiasm, Boulder is inarguably the year-round “Running Town, USA”.
