Colorado Runner - Colorado's running news, events and results source

Because of a busy work or school life, it can be hard to get out in the morning or during the day for a run. Weather can also play a part in this, as it’s not as comfortable bracing the midday heat in the summer for a workout, as it is cooler evenings.

While you’re pounding the pavement, though, there’s a hidden danger you also need to watch for. As you look to smash a personal best or sweat out the stresses of the day, your eyes may also take a beating from Colorado's harsh sun.

The Paris Olympic Games are on, with track and field to be underway from Thursday, August 1st to Sunday, August 11th. Amid all the running, jumping, throwing, and multis, there will be 48 total athletics events to watch from the highest-contested sport at the Olympic Games.
