The second leg in the Triple Crown of Running series, the Summer Roundup Half Marathon & 10K is set for July 14 in Cheyenne Mountain State Park.

Get ready for beautiful as both courses roll along the foothills beneath Cheyenne Mountain where cattle once grazed and cowboys rode herd. You'll dash through stands of dark timber and across wildflower-speckled meadows. The trails are fast and runnable with a few steep sections and rocks thrown in for fun. And the views are great in every direction.

The half marathon is a qualifier for the Pikes Peak Ascent. The 10K distance, meanwhile, is more like seven miles ... because you deserve a little extra.

Cool T-shirt and pint glass for everyone! Overall, masters, and age-group awards.

New this year: The half marathon starts at 6:30 a.m. with the 10K close behind.
