Active at Altitude provides an excellent location for those looking to train at altitude and for a place to get away from rigors of daily life to focus on training. Terry has created a fantastic residential base that overlooks some of the best scenery Colorado has to offer. Just a short drive to the beauty of Rocky Mountain National Park or down the road to Boulder takes care of all your workout requirements from long winding trails, to networks of challenging mountain terrain, running tracks and flat trails. You are never short of somewhere different to run.
At about 8000 feet, Active at Altitude is a good place to develop the red blood cells needed to build oxygen carrying capacity. |
It is also an ideal setting to return to and recover after a hard days training.
I particularly enjoyed sitting out on the deck, taking in the views.
The accommodation is well looked after, spacious, clean and very comfortable. It is also owned and managed by a team of active runners/cyclist/exercise and health enthusiasts; it is far from your typical cardboard hotel, a great place to unwind and take in the breathtaking views and mountain air.
The hospitality provided to us by Terry and Jacqui was top notch. They are extremely welcoming and friendly, very genuine and caring.
They also have a good reference library, covering topics such as sports psychology, sport nutrition, coaching and more. For anyone needing to cross-train, Terry has also included a small gym area and a Nordic track ski machine.
I greatly enjoyed my stay at Active at Altitude and will be bringing groups back in the future to make use of this wonderful location. I would recommend Active at Altitude to anyone looking to gain from the benefits of altitude training or who simply wants a place to get away from it all. Make sure you ask Terry to make his delicious soup for you.
