"...but Boulder is the sport's buzz city once again, with Craig Alexander, Tim DeBoom, Matt Reed, Michael Lovato, Chris Lieto, Simon Lessing, Greg Bennett, Laura Bennett, Chrissie Wellington and Joanna Zeiger to name a few, calling it home at least part of the year.

These marquee names and hundreds more elite-level triathletes, cyclists and runners find Boulder an ideal training ground, partially because of what it doesn't have - traffic, humidity and rain. the weather is mild year round, with typically only a handful of scorching hot days in the summer and warm enough temperatures on most winter days to allow for long rides in tights and long-sleeve jersey.

Boulder has several outdoor pools, a reservoir for open-water swimming, wide open rolling roads for training rides, many good bike shops, hundreds of physical therapists and thousands of massage therapists. It's situated at 5,430 above sea level, but there's easy access to roads for seemingly limitless riding and running above 8,500 feet."
