From the Race Organizer
2027 Race Date is Saturday, March 13. Registration will open on November 1. There are a few changes regarding registration this year for runners - please take note. There will be no moving down in distance from the marathon to the half marathon once the half marathon fills up unless you place your name on the half marathon waitlist and a spot opens up. The half marathon typically fills up around mid January. There will be one time cutoff for the half marathon this year. Runners will need to arrive at the mile 6.1 aid station by 2 hours and 20 minutes into the race in order to continue. The 2 time cutoffs for the marathon remain. The 22nd Annual Run Through Time Marathon, Half Marathon, and 2 Mile Run will take place on Saturday, March 13, in Salida, CO. These beautiful, challenging courses are run on dirt/jeep roads and narrow, hilly single track with fantastic views of Salida and the Arkansas Valley. Elevations range from 7000-9000 feet. Foot travel only. There is a 7 1/2 hour time limit for the marathon, and a 5 hour time limit for the half marathon. No crews or pacers on either course. Prizes will be awarded to the top three M/F in each race and top three F/M in each 10 year age group. A light hot meal will be available at the finish for contestants. All registered runners will receive custom race socks. There is a 500 person combined limit for the half marathon and full marathon (split mostly evenly between the two events). Race takes place on the Arkansas Hills Trail System, BLM and Forest Service land, and Chaffee County and City of Salida roads and property. Donations from proceeds from this event will be made to Salida Mountain Trails and Chaffee County Search and Rescue-South (over the last 8 years alone, over $40,000 from race proceeds has been donated). We greatly appreciate their support of this event, and their contributions to the Chaffee County community in general! There will also be a 2 mile run (first 2 dirt road miles of the marathon and half marathon course), and a free kids’ 400 meter run, which will take place in Riverside Park. Please contact Kristy Falcon at rttsalida@gmail.com with any questions or if you are interested in sponsoring or volunteering at this event.
