Gulpha Gorge

— Trail runners training for the Pikes Peak Marathon (in Colorado Springs, Colo., this August) are inviting all other runners and hikers to join them at 6:30 a.m. Sunday for a free 15- or 18-mile run from Gulpha Gorge Campground at Hot Springs.

Expect scenic, rolling, shaded trails and several aid stations provided by Peak veteran Debbie Rigsby and her friends in the Spa Pacers running club.

“A clear creek for cooling off at the end is a bonus too,” says run organizer John Krillenberger.

But the weather’s so hot he urges everyone to bring a water bottle to carry between aid stops.
