Where to stay during the exciting summer months in Beaver Creek, Vail and the Avon during these great summer events:
Here are just a few huge events that you do not want to miss.

XTERRA

Beaver Creek West Condo’s is the best play to stay as we are next to Nottingham Lake where the swimming is held for XTERRA
Because of the sometimes extreme conditions, every race in the XTERRA Colorado Trail Run Series offers two course options – a “short” course for less-experienced runners and a longer course for experienced runners. The short courses are usually 10 kilometers or fewer; the long courses are usually 20 kilometers or longer. There are even two events that will offer 42K full marathon trail courses.

All of the races in the XTERRA Colorado Trail Run Series are open to runners of all ages and skill levels. Points will be awarded to the top age-group finishers of each race. At the conclusion of the series, each age-group champion will receive a free entry to represent Colorado at the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship.

“There are a lot of running series in Colorado, but what’s different about the XTERRA Series is that it leads to something,” Parker noted. “If you do well in the XTERRA (Colorado) Series, you can move on to the Nationals or Worlds, and that’s a nice incentive.”
