In 1991 Mark Wetmore left the east coast with aspirations of creating a post collegiate running club. After stopping in Boulder, Wetmore found the small mountain town appealing. He began working full-time and coaching whoever he could in his spare time.

Coach Wetmore initially began his Colorado coaching career as a volunteer assistant in 1992. In 1994 Coach Wetmore was given a part-time position coaching the men's middle distance group. In 1996 He was promoted to head coach of cross country/track and field. Prior to coaching at Colorado Coach Wetmore was the assistant track coach at Seton Hall from 1988-1991.

During Wetmore's time as Head Coach, Colorado has seen 69 All-Americans, 15 conference champions, and 13 regional champions. Currently Wetmore has 16 of his former athletes competing as post-collegians.
