There will be no race in 2005.

It's a nice, flat course mostly on roads and bike paths. There are orange traffice cones every 100 yards so there is no worry about taking a wrong turn. The reace organizers did a great job!

The scenic course features panoramic views near the foothills of the Rocky Mountains near Fort Collins, Colorado. Race officials are expecting very rapid growth of this unique event, and numbers are expected to increase in 2004. The public trail system surrounding Fort Collins has a cap on the number of participants who can safely navigate the course, so be sure to get your entry in early to reserve your number.

The Easy Street Marathon is a qualifier for the Boston Marathon, and is a great way to almost guarantee a fast time on this mostly flat course. The course begins at Odell's Brewing Co., follows the wild and scenic Poudre River, runs along the Spring Creek bike trail, through Colorado State University and downtown, and finishes in the historic Old Town area at Coopersmiths' Pub

Packet Pick up is at University Park Holiday Inn.
