Flagstaff. There is a reason olympians go train there. It has everything that you want.


the BEST part about training in flagstaff is that you can leave flagstaff to train. sleep/live high and train low (~30-40min drive to get down to a reasonable altitude). which is why the olympians train there.


Living at 6,000 to 7,000ft and training below 5,000ft is your best, reasonable, bet.
Can you do this in Flagstaff? I'm unsure of where to go for lower elevation training.

Other places like this.
Tahoe to Reno & others
Park City & area to SLC
MT Lemmon to Tucson

Most of the low points in Colorado are over 5k, which is too high for optimal training.

If training effect is #1, these are your answers.
If you just want a vacation in the mountains, choose some place pretty.
