On this , we’re celebrating the runners who made this year’s Aspen Valley Marathon special. Meet Diego, who discovered his passion for running during the pandemic and has since tackled marathons in Chicago, London, and New York.

This July, Diego brought his enthusiasm for running to Aspen, hosting the Shakeout Run with and pacing the Half Marathon. Reflecting on the race, he shared, ‘The vibe and atmosphere were amazing. It felt like a true party at the finish line, with everyone celebrating together. It was awesome to share that feeling with others.’

We’re proud to spotlight Diego, who not only chases his dreams but also contributes to our community. Here’s to many more miles and memorable moments, Diego!
