Fort Collins Area Marathons, Running Races Coming Up in 2021

Are you ready to run? Break out those sneakers and your protein pack: community runs and marathons are coming back to Northern Colorado, starting in March.

Marathons and races are just some of the events that were affected by COVID-19, leaving running enthusiasts of Northern Colorado missing the community that 5Ks and marathons bring.

Whether you were strapping on your laces to "Run for the Trees" or grabbing Fido for the Fire Hydrant 5K, these events gave NoCo athletes a purpose and most importantly: something to do on Saturday mornings! Vaccine rollouts are underway, though, and that means that it's time to dust off your handy-dandy tennis shoes and get ready to get back out on the pavement.

Here's a list of 15 races through July, and for events past that you can check out the full list on RunningintheUSA.com right here.
