About us
A group of trail runners that are as serious about their trail running as the breakfast that follows. We enjoy diversity in our trails, restaurants, and running cohorts. Many runs are in the Boulder area; however we also look to get into the high country as much as possible. Runs are typically on Saturday mornings. The duration varies from about 2 hour to 4+ depending on location, group fitness, schedules, etc. Terrain can range from easy flat to steep technical. Pace can vary widely however we never let anyone forget why they joined a group.

BTRBC Fall Picnic
North Boulder park, 9th and Dellwood Avenue, Boulder, CO, USNo brutal 5:00 AM alarms, no questioning your life choices halfway up a rocky ridge, and zero vertical gain. We are trading suffering for snacking and fun, so you can finally hang out with people in daylight without staring at their sweaty backs or dodging loose scree.
What to Bring:
Food & Drinks to Share: Bring a dish, snack, or beverages to pass around the picnic spread (bonus points if it has zero Gu-packets or electrolyte powder in it). Sign up here with what you're bringing so we don't end up with a bunch of bags of chips and zero actual food. Please remember to bring your own plates and utensils to help not use paper products.Seating: Grab a camp chair, lawn chair, or a cozy blanket to lounge on because sitting on grass without running shoes on feels suspiciously luxurious.
RSVP below and let’s swap some trail stories without gasping for air. Please feel free to bring your family as well.
