Links for Trail Running in Colorado

I finished the Platte River Half Marathon this past Sunday and it wasn't pretty.  I need to post a race recap soon.  In the meanwhile, I plan to switch to trail running for a while because I'm running the Greenland Trail Races 8 miler on Saturday May 5 with my friend.  That should be fun.  I am SO glad we decided to sign up for the 8 miler instead of the 15 miler, especially after the ordeal that was Platte River.

This post is mainly so I can share my favorite links for trail running in Colorado, particularly in my area.  If you have any other trail running links to share, I would love to have them!

I discovered a website listing of Colorado Trail Runs thanks to RunColo.  The list can be found at http://www.runcolo.com/section/colorado-running-trails_1-407.  I plan on trying out several of these runs.

Jefferson County has a listing of open space parks and maps with trail descriptions.  Very handy!

The website for Runner's World has a section on trail running.

Speaking of trail running, I just received the latest issue of Runner's World and it is a special on trail running!  I can't wait to devour it.
