Gregory 5th Place Leads Colorodans at World Mountain & Trail Championships in Spain

Results
 

Colorado was strongly represented on the world stage as 20 athletes from across the state competed at the World Mountain Running & Trail Championships. Against elite international fields and the rugged Pyrenees terrain, Colorado’s contingent delivered gutsy performances across vertical, classic, and long-trail events.


Vertical Mountain Race

  • Hilary Allen (Boulder) and Sydney Petersen (Crested Butte) led the Colorado women in the uphill-only event, finishing 29th and 31st.

  • On the men’s side, Cameron Smith (Crested Butte) cracked the top 15 with an 11th-place finish (40:30), followed by Tyler McCandless (Fort Collins) in 26th and veteran Joseph Gray (Colorado Springs) in 34th.


Classic Up-and-Down Mountain Race

  • Lauren Gregory (Nederland) was the top Colorado finisher in the women’s classic race, placing 5th in 1:13:38. She was joined by Courtney Coppinger (Golden) in 14th and Allie Maclaughlin (Colorado Springs) in 26th.

  • Among men, Taylor Stack (Salida) finished 12th, with Mason Coppi (Lakewood) 14th, Cameron Smith 24th, and David Norris (Steamboat Springs) 36th.


Trail Long Course

Colorado also had a strong showing in the grueling long-trail races through the Spanish Pyrenees:

  • Tabor Scholl-Hemming (Kremmling) and Lindsay Allison (Telluride) finished back-to-back in the women’s division, placing 34th and 36th.

  • Noah Williams (Leadville) represented the men with a 14th-place finish in 5:02:42.

From Boulder and Fort Collins to Leadville and Telluride, Colorado athletes showcased the state’s depth in mountain and trail running. The challenging courses, high elevation, and technical terrain of Canfranc provided the perfect test for runners accustomed to training in the Rockies.
