 "Best inaugural marathon we have run." (about: 2002)
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 3 This marathon was one of the best organized inaugural marathons we have participated in. The volunteers were enthusiastic and proud of their community. The post race activities in the middle of downtown demonstrated how a community can work together to make runners and their families want to return. The autumn colors were sensational and the scenery easily matched Big Sur. This is a marathon that should not be missed. | |

"Beautiful running experience" (about: 2002)
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 It was exciting to be apart of Durango's first official marathon. The course is stunningly beautiful with the aspens changing. The organizers and volunteers were excellent. I felt supported in every way, plenty of aid stations, cheering, etc. The course itself is not super fast, but it does have constant rolling hills from 16-23, not to mention the 6600 ft altitude. If you take a look at the results, you'll find the average finishing time is higher the many other marathons. All in all, I highly recommend to challenge yourself with the Durango Marathon. It was a well organized, challenging race. | |

"This is an A+++++++ marathon" (General Comments)
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 For a first time marathon this was superb. Toilets at every water stop, even more established Marathons do not provide them. The scenery was wonderful, the volunteers innumerable, no one could get lost in this race. But the ultimate joy was at the end, when I was given 'coupons' that enabled me to buy a real microbrewed beer and real food, not the usual bagel etc. The finish line was in the middle of a block party. This Marathon deserves to survive, and other runs should copy its skill and professionalism. |
