Description
The Grand Valley Marathon, 1/2 Marathon, 10K and 5K runs through some of the most historic and scenic areas in Colorado's Grand Valley. Runners get to run along the Colorado River, the base of the Grand Mesa (largest flat-topped mesa in the world), the historical town of Palisade and the famous blooming orchards. The course begins and ends at 4,725ft. On this up-and-back course, starting in the historic city of Palisade and travels along the river, then follows the Fruit and Wine Byway, which this race is a fundraiser for.
