The Mile High Mile is back for its 8th season—bringing a high-energy night of racing to Boulder for runners of all ages and abilities.
This year, we’re introducing a new format designed to make the event more accessible, more flexible, and more fun—whether you're chasing a PR or just showing up to run a mile with your crew.
3:00 PM – 6:30 PM | Your Turn on the Track
Four laps. One goal. Infinite energy. Join the community for a series of seeded heats where the focus is on personal bests and pure fun
Inclusive Racing: Heats for Kids, High Schoolers, and Open/Masters athletes.
Pro Standards: Officially timed (FAT) for the serious competitors, but cheered on by the loudest crowd in Boulder for the fun-seekers.
Seed Your Speed: We group you by pace so you’re always in the mix, never alone.
6:45 PM – 7:15 PM | The Grand Finale: Elite Showdown
The energy hits its peak as the sun sets and the fastest milers in the region take the track. After your race, grab a front-row spot on the rail to witness the speed of the pros.
6:45 PM Women’s Elite Mile: Watch as top local and national talent chase the sub-4:30 dream with time bonus payouts.
7:00 PM Men’s Elite Mile: Experience the roar of the crowd as the men aim for a sub-4:00 clocking under the stadium lights.
Stay for the Magic: High-octane music, professional intros, and an electric atmosphere you won’t find anywhere else in Colorado.
