We like to think that every Title 9K we put on is a memorable one, but the 12th annual Mother’s Day Title 9K in Boulder, CO just might take the cake! (Chocolate cake, of course.)

Why’s that? Well, there are certain things we simply can’t control on race day — like the weather.

But we also know you simply cannot stop a mother runner: she will lead the way no matter what the world throws at her.

Said Chris C., one of our ‘most inspirational story’ winners, “Writing the story really helped heal a part of my soul, and to be recognized made it that much more special.” We are proud to recognize you, Chris! The Title 9K couldn’t be the event it is today without  all of the incredible people who come out to both participate and make the event run smoothly. While conditions weren’t smooth, at least our race crew kept things moving.

This video from the race start to gives a pretty good idea of what our 826 finishers tackled.
