We recommend coming to the Colorado Rockies with a solid base of training so you can make the most of your time with us. And that doesn’t just mean a better finishing time—the fitter you are, the more fun you will have. With focused training you can better manage the high altitudes, the sustained and cumulative elevation gains and the steep technical ascents and descents that come with the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. This can allow you to better enjoy the mountain tops, the meadows filled with flowers and the glowing aspen trees that surround you on each day. Any runner starting TransRockies can do more than they thought they could from stage to stage, but it requires specificity in your training and preparation.

We recommend looking into COACHING services to prepare you for the challenges that you will likely encounter during a multi-day trail running event that traverses the Colorado Rockies. However, not every coach is well versed in the specific training required for a multi-day race like TransRockies. 

At TransRockies, we have partnered with the coaches at PEAK RUN PERFORMANCE since 2016 due to their specialization in preparing for and completing multi-day trail running events. Their coaches, Brittany Peterson, Manu Vilaseca and Carla Rodriguez Dimitrescu, are internationally certified, have personal experience with multi-day trail running events and have coached athletes from all over the world for events such as the TransRockies Run. These coaches are very familiar with the TransRockies race courses, terrain, and conditions you’ll encounter at TransRockies and can help you prepare for the challenges ahead of you! Coach Brittany was a top finisher in the open womens category in the 6-day stage race in 2024! She certainly knows what it takes to run strong throughout the entire series and is first to comment on the joy that this race experience brings.
