See What Our Members Have to Say!

I’ve made deep, lasting friendships that have become like family. David’s plans, coaching, and the group support helped me accomplish something I had only dreamed of doing in the past – 11 marathons, 2 half-Ironmans, and too many half-marathons and triathlons to count.

Erin BrumleveMember since 2008

Saturday runs are one of my favorite times of the week. I get to run with amazing people and continue my training all at the same time. I’ve now completed more than 10 more marathons, a few 70.3 milers, and a full Ironman!

Kelly WilliamsMember since 2011

The coaches have taught me how to train smartly, eat properly, and prepare my body for the rigors of a marathon.  They continue to provide me encouragement, and inspire me to push further.  Long Saturday morning runs are a highlight of my week.

Dan MolineMember since 2012

I truly enjoy the team atmosphere and the coaching. It is definitely worth the price and has a return that one is not able to sum up in dollars but in happiness. The coaches at Runner’s Edge help to get you to your potential.

David Manthey

Accomplished distance runner, having completed dozens of marathons & ultramarathons, Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim (R2R2R) at the Grand Canyon, and several 100 milers including the Leadville Trail 100.

Road Runners Club of America, Certified Running Coach.

Runner's Edge of the Rockies

Founded in 2003, we’ve grown to successfully help over 1,000 people achieve their distance running goals!

Since our very first training session in June of 2003, our training philosophy has been to focus on the total health of the athlete first and foremost, helping runners achieve their goals while keeping in balance with life’s many priorities. We also believe in the power of individualized coaching within an organized, social and fun group setting.

We have members training for their first 5K, those who have qualified for Boston, those who have won their age groups in marathons, completed 100-mile ultras, and everyone in between! Many other running groups are focused on training everyone for one specific race, but as a member of Runner’s Edge of the Rockies, you will enjoy the benefit of choosing whatever race you want as your goal, and we’ll provide the detailed plan to get you there, and keep the periodization synced up with the rest of the group.

Whether you want to complete or to compete, you’ll be amazed by what you can achieve when you train in our supportive, expert-led environment. Distance running is an individual sport, but nobody said you have to train alone!
