A crowd of several hundred athletes turned out Saturday for a trail race unique to the Colorado Springs area — one that takes competitors all the way to the summit of Cheyenne Mountain and back down. The event, now in its eleventh year, drew approximately 400 people on Aug. 15.

Proceeds from the race benefit a nonprofit group dedicated to Cheyenne Mountain State Park, with funds directed toward volunteer programs and park infrastructure.

Details on top finishers, total dollars raised, and organizer comments were not available in the source material at time of publication, and Springs Daily will update this brief as additional information emerges.
