Nearly 300 complete annual Vail HillClimb on Saturday

Nearly 300 people completed the 41st annual Vail HillClimb on Saturday. The race took place on dirt and gravel roads on Vail Mountain, with local, regional and national runners testing themselves up the 7.7-mile course that featured more than 2,200 feet of elevation gain. Eighteen-year-old Seth Hirsch, of Omaha, Nebraska, was fastest up the mountain with a time of 52:49. Behind him, Tyler Curtis, of Golden, ran a 55:14 to edge out Kurt Roeser, of Boulder, who finished in 55:19. Lesley Paterson, of San Diego, was the fastest woman up the mountain with a time of 1:01:55; behind her was Emma Kenton, of Broomfield, in 1:02:57 and Brandy Erholtz, of Evergreen, in 1:03:08.

The Vail HillClimb is the third race in the La Sportiva Vail Trail Running Series, which wraps up in September. Series races range in distance from 3.1 miles to 13.1 miles. On Saturday, July 22, runners will be challenged during the Camp Hale Half Marathon, taking runners along the Continental Divide Trail and the Colorado Trail surrounding historic Camp Hale.
