Running Everywhere

The Mesa Monument Striders is the paramount running group in the Grand Valley. We are based on the Western Slope of Colorado in Grand Junction, but that doesn’t stop us from enjoying running all over Colorado and Utah! Because of our extraordinary locale, we get to run it all--atop the 11,000 foot Grand Mesa, along the streets and river trails of our beautiful cities, through the red rock canyons in our backyard, and across a whole lot of high desert terrain.
