2022 Leadville Trail 100 Run

Aug 20, 2022
Leadville, CO

Does running 100 miles with over 14,000ft of elevation gain through the heart of the Rocky Mountains sound like fun to you? If so you might just be crazy…but what better way to put that ‘crazy’ to good use than raising money in support of adventures for young adults impacted by cancer and other serious health conditions!

First Descents has fielded 14 straight Leadville 100 MTB teams, this is our 4th year adding a Leadville 100 Run team to the mix! In 2019 our 15 runners raised over $53,000 in support of FD!
