Hardrock 100

2026 Lottery Entry

The 2026 Hardrock Hundred lottery application window will open on Wednesday, Oct. 1 and close on at 11:59p MDT on Tuesday, Oct. 14, 2025. You can register for the lottery, which will be held on Saturday, Dec. 6, thru your UltraSignup account. Are you still qualified to apply? Check our qualifying page.

The 2025 runnings of Lake Biwa, Diagonale des Fous, Ultra-Trail Cape Town, and Grampian Peaks may be used as a qualifier for Hardrock 2026 even though they are held during or after the lottery application window. If you intend to use one of these runs as your qualifier, please register for the Hardrock lottery during the window and indicate the race you wish to use as your qualifier. We will review the results after your race, and automatically process your application or remove your entry depending on your finisher status - you don't have to do anything further.

We’re looking forward to seeing your application!

Hardrock 100 At a Glance

100-mile run with 33,197 feet of climb and 33,197 feet of descent for a total elevation change of 66,394 feet with an average elevation of 11,186 feet - low point 7,680 feet (Ouray) and high point 14,048 feet (Handies Peak).

We acknowledge the land the Hardrock 100 traverses is the ancestral homeland of the Ute, Puebloan and Diné people. Information about this land is often told from dominant perspectives, without full recognition of the original land stewards. We invite others to join us in this acknowledgment to heal, renew and reaffirm the First Nations’ history and continued presence in Colorado and pay tribute to these traditional homelands and its people.
