Boulderthon in Colorado has established a new Runner Experience Advisory Board, as well as confirm the inaugural six members who will offer their input as part of the board.
According to the event team… ‘The creation of the board is rooted in Boulderthon’s mission to create a signature Boulder Marathon series in the community of Boulder, with a ‘for-runners, by-runners’ focus on the participant experience, and to draw upon the depth of knowledge required to create a world-class marathon series.’
