Message Etiquette

Our group is for announcing & discussing runs, races and related topics & events.  We strive to keep the discussions germane to the core focus of the group - trail running in the Denver area.  There's plenty of other groups for other topics.  Please review the following guidelines:
  • Runs, regularly scheduled or other. Anyone can announce a group run, as long as it is on trails and/or mountain roads with significant elevation gain. For more info on how to start a group run, click the Runs page.
  • Races - trail, mountain or snowshoeing.
    • "Trail" means dirt, usually single or double track, with technical difficulty. Mostly smooth dirt (e.g., Highline Canal, Big Dry Creek) does not constitute a trail.
    • Mountain road races are allowed as long as there is significant elevation gain (e.g., Mt. Evans). Other high altitude paved/dirt road races and ultras will be considered on a case by case basis.
    • Generally, no road races or road running events please. There are plenty of other venues to promote those.
    • Please limit your posts to two or three.
  • ​Events. This might include outdoor film festivals, clinics, volunteer trail building, road trips associated with a trail race, etc., as long as they are related to trail running.
  • DTR is intended as a discussion/meetup group, and advertising is generally disallowed outside of Trail Races/Events. Posts advertising or marketing any other products or services besides trail races and events (e.g., classes, coaching, etc.) will generally be removed. Personal posts in the spirit of "I'm selling a pair of shoes I bought, tried & didn't like" are fine. If you have questions about the appropriateness of a post, message the page or email the moderators before you post.
  • Other. Other trail related posts will be considered on a case by case basis. These might include requests for pacers, carpool to trail runs/races, but will depend on the volume of messages and whim of the moderators. Multiple pacer, carpool or similar requests might be combined into a single message by the moderators.
  • On Facebook, please no join requests from Pages / Non-Persons.  Those will generally not be accepted.
  • Posts not germane to trail running in the Denver area will be moderated.
