Every year since 1983, endurance athletes from all over the world travel to Colorado to compete in the Leadville Race Series, produced by Life Time. America’s highest 100-miler is an extreme test of grit, guts and determination with the ultimate goal of completing the “race across the sky” and earning the coveted silver and gold race buckle.
The series of Leadville’s legendary ultra-distance events, famed for their challenging courses and elevations through the Rocky Mountain terrain, has drawn competitors for 36 years who aspire to push themselves through the life-changing race that recently made headlines with Bobby Lea, a 3-time Olympic track cyclist who noted that the Olympics were “nothing compared to Leadville.”
Those that are drawn to the allure of competing in the iconic Leadville Race Series may now register for the entire list of events and training camps, including:
