Semper Arduo Modo
"Do it the hard way"

Group for planning climbs, runs, and sufferfests.

Special Idiots started in late 2003 as a way for a few friends (Yannick N, Steve N, Susan G, Chris G, Mike L and Marella C) to plan rock and gym climbing trips. Over the years as we've met new friends and climbing partners, it's grown and spiraled out of control into the mess you see today :-)

Special Idiots is a small group of friends and as such, isn't an open group to the general public. If you want to join, you have to be sponsored and recommend by an existing member. If you're looking for an open trail running group in Boulder, check out the Boulder Trail Runners Yahoo! group.
