Okay runners - you now have about 3 months left in your training for the Steamboat Marathon, Half Marathon or 10k. This is a great time to start dialing in your nutrition. You want to think about how you are eating every day and not just on race days. Everyone will have a little bit of a different

It is safe to say that the Snow Gods followed through on their end of the deal this year as well over twenty feet of snow has piled up. This epic season has passed its mid-point but there is still fun and laughter to be had. Bluebird skies, spring skiing, live music, and a Closing Day celebration
