As the shortest race in the Leadville Race Series, the Leadville 10K Run offers runners a unique opportunity to experience the magic of Leadville from a less intimidating distance. Cast against Leadville’s breathtaking mountain backdrop, the 10K crosses the same gravel roads as the infamous LT100 RUN course, covering the first and final 3.1 miles of the Race Across the Sky. Dip your toes in the magic and step into the warm embrace of the Cloud City community — you’ll never look back.
