WASATCH 1/2 MARATHON AND 10K

The Wasatch 1/2 Marathon and 10K is a mostly trail race based at Soldier Hollow in Utah, with both distances starting and finishing near the Soldier Hollow Nordic Center. The half marathon starts at 8:00 a.m. and the 10K follows at 8:10, so runners usually begin in cool mountain air, with early temperatures often in the 30s to 50s Fahrenheit. TriUtah presents the event, and parking is at the start and finish area, so runners do not need a shuttle. The course uses signed and volunteer-marked trail sections, but runners are still expected to know the route and use caution. Aid stations sit at Deer Creek North Trailhead, the 10K turnaround, and the half marathon turnaround, though runners are encouraged to carry their own water and nutrition. Finishers receive a shirt and medal, awards go three deep in 10-year age groups, and the race is now in its seventh annual running.
