Our 1st Latino Ultra Nature Adventure (LUNA) is a culturally relevant and equity driven new kind of Ultra powering the physical and mental health that comes from the mix of athletics, awe inspiring nature, and forest bathing. LUNA promotes human-nature connections and self realization through running and hiking for communities historically excluded from exclusive outdoor sports. 

Ultras have traditionally been curated for athletes and have been anchored in competition and driven by an exclusive sports culture.  LUNA reframes the Ultra athletics experience to inspire participants to engage in the sport for the first time AND to invite established athletes to join a more inclusive and culture driven ultra challenge.

LUNA is an initiative of Americas for Conservation + the Arts (AFC+A) and the program United Cultures of Athletics and Nature (UCAN). AFC+A 

The Americas Latino Eco Festival XIII (ALEF),  a flagship program of AFC+A,  has teamed up with Colorado's Human Potential Running Series to offer this unique Latino Ultra Nature Experience. Join us on Sunday, October 22, 2023 and kick off your ALEF experience with a unique adventure in the mountains of Boulder, CO.

The experience features distances of 5km, 10km, a Half Marathon (13.1 miles), and 55km (34 miles). On your journey you'll explore a variety of ecological areas in the mountains above Boulder.
