Denver

Denver's running scene thrives at elevation—the mile-high city (1,609m) makes aerobic work harder and altitude training serious business, with steady trails through City Park and the South Platte River corridor. Cyclists dominate here: the Denver Century Ride is a sprawling institution, the Triple Bypass climbs from Denver into the Front Range peaks (a 190km alpine epic over three major passes), and the foothills west of the metro offer relentless grades on roads like Bear Creek and Mount Evans approaches. Road running stays mostly flat within the city proper, but trailrunners escape into the Rockies just 20km west for real elevation gain.
