The Front Range Ultra Dayze features 100 hours of ultra-running madness! The goal is to bring people from all over the U.S. together for a festival of ultra-running in Loveland, CO. All distances are ultra-distances, because there’s no community like the ultra-running community! Runners are allowed to camp at the park from start to finish for free! This will be an epic ultra-running party. Come out and see what you can do!
The route is a 2-mile “loop” consisting of about 80% dirt trail and 20% pavement. Runners will start near the shelter in Centennial Park, run a loop in River’s Edge Natural Area, and go back to Centennial Park entering the start/finish from the opposite direction. The course is flat, fast, and beautiful!
The timed races will have multiple start times/dates. You are allowed to start late, but your time starts according to the schedule below, therefore your ending time/date will not change when you start late.
100-hour – starts Thursday @10:00 AM (ends Monday @2:00 PM)
72-hour – starts Thursday OR Friday @10:00 AM (ends Sunday OR Monday @10:00 AM)
48-hour – starts Friday OR Saturday @10:00 AM (ends Sunday OR Monday @ 10:00 AM)

6-hour – starts Saturday OR Sunday @ 10:00 AM (ends Saturday OR Sunday @ 4:00 PM)
Time-based runners are allowed to stop at any time – they do not have to go for the entirety of their chosen duration to receive their awards or results.
Distance-based races runners are also allowed to pick from multiple start dates seen below.
200-mile – starts Thursday, Friday, or Saturday @ 10:00 AM (ends Monday @2:00 PM)
100-mile – starts Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday @ 10:00 AM (ends Monday @2:00 PM)
No matter which start date you choose, all distance-based races end at 2:00 PM on Monday. If you do not finish your distance before that time, you are a DNF. We do not allow drops in distance at the race. You must finish the distance you signed up for or you are a DNF. Keep in mind, that the later you start your distance-based race, the shorter your cutoff will be. For example, for the 200-mile race, if you start on the latest date, you will have a 52-hour cutoff.
Awards Ceremony – 3:00 PM on Monday. It is not required that you pick up your reward at the ceremony. If you’d like to leave immediately after the conclusion of your race that’s fine. The top 3 males and females will be announced/awarded in each race at the ceremony.
