Editor’s Pick: 24 hours of sunlight

Aspen Daily News Staff Report
Glenwood’s Grandest Test of Endurance

I don’t know about you, but we’ve had enough of the silly little uphill races going on at Aspen Mountain and Aspen Highlands. Right? I mean, what is so tough about running up a mountain and then skiing down? Is there anything out there that can actually pose a challenge to all of the stellar athletes in the Roaring Fork Valley?

Well, some say there is, but it isn’t happening in Aspen or Snowmass. No way. The big race is going down in Glenwood, on a mountain they call Sunlight.

That’s right, it’s time for the real deal — The 24 Hours of Sunlight. What does that mean? It means 24 hours of straight hiking, skiing/riding, and maybe even a little vomiting along the way.

So get your team together — or, rather, get yourself together. Because if you think you’re tough, we’ll find out on Feb.23-24.
