Under Armour has signed on as the title sponsor of the TransRockies Run. A three or six-day stage race traversing the continental divide between Buena Vista and Beaver Creek, the route covers 120 miles through the Colorado Rockies.
At the end of each stage, runners gather in camp to recover, socialize and celebrate. Fully supported with tents, luggage service, mobile shower truck, catered meals and massage. TransRockies Run is a running vacation where memories and friendships are made that last a lifetime. With a capacity of only 350 runners, the event sells out every year.
