Stage three of the TransRockies Run took in 10,200 ft of elevation in Leadville on their 24.4-mile trek to Camp Hale.
Runners took off with a 2.5-mile warm up run out of Leadville. After some road miles were over runners hit single-track trail beginning their first, and largest climb of the day - a three-mile continuous uphill. Once reaching the top of climb one, runners descended down a double track trail leading to the first checkpoint, before runners continuing on through Ski Cooper on rolling terrain making their way to Checkpoint two.
The run to the final checkpoint was a scenic route on the Colorado Trail offering great scenery and pretty wildflowers.
