Scott Broome, originally from Birmingham, Ala., has lived in Boulder for about three years now.
With an, "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em" mentality, he'll be participating in his first Bolder Boulder this year.
"It's a big deal every year," Broome said. "It's hard to get around, so might as well do it."
Broome has been training "on and off" for the race, but prefers cycling because of "bad knees." He'd like to keep his mile pace under 9 minutes, but admittedly hasn't run a race this long before. Broome's hoping for a bump from his fellow runners.
"It's fun to run with other people because they push you, you end up going faster than you thought you could," he said.
And despite his rookie status, Broome appears to have the spirit of the Bolder Boulder already.
"It's nice to see six miles of Boulder, in any context, but it'll be great to do so with tens of thousands of other people," he said.
