About this Event
This is not a race. "The Marathon Continues" is a 26.2-mile group ride through Denver presented by Function Wellness and Donks. Named for Nipsey Hussle's marathon philosophy, this quarterly ride is about the long game -- showing up, staying consistent, and finishing with your people.
The route covers 26.2 miles across three segments with regroups between each one. We roll out together from Sunken Gardens Park, nobody gets dropped, and we cross the finish line as one crew. Expect a steady, competitive pace with room to push within each segment. Faster riders are welcome to stretch their legs but we regroup before every new segment starts.
Fixie, single speed, gravel, road, e-bike -- if it has two wheels and you pedal it, you belong here. Bring water, snacks, a spare tube, and whatever keeps you comfortable for two-plus hours in the saddle. Helmets are required. The ride is free and open to all. Donations to Donks are encouraged but never expected.
This is the inaugural ride of a quarterly series. Summer, fall, winter, spring -- All-season riders. A GPX file of the full route and a participant waiver will be shared with all registered participants before ride day. Please include your email when you sign up so we can send both your way. Signed waivers must be returned before the ride.
Your ride leader (Carlos) will be on a single speed holding a 12-13 mph pace. You are welcome to ride at your own speed, but we finish as a group. Regroup after each segment, catch our breath/stretch/hydrate, and roll out the next one together. Pace the segment, not the whole tour.
Not sure if 26.2 is your distance yet? We are open to leading an impromptu 10-mile training ride before event day if there is enough interest. Reach out directly if you want in.
