Marathon preteky v blízkosti American Fork

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.

The Haunted race in Highland, Utah, starts from 4800 Knight Ave and offers four distance choices: 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon. The race begins at 8:30 AM. Packet pickup opens 30 minutes before the start and closes 10 minutes before runners depart. The 5K and 10K follow an out-and-back course; 5K runners complete it once, while 10K runners go out and back. The half marathon and marathon have a separate course. Parking is available near the start. All participants must register in advance on RunSignup, as no race-day registration is available.

The Revolution Run is a January 1 running event held in Kearns, Utah, starting at 5662 S Cougar Ln. Participants can select from four race distances: 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon. This allows for a New Year’s morning activity ranging from a short holiday run to a full 42.2 km effort. The available distances are 5.0 km, 10.0 km, 21.1 km, and 42.2 km. The event's unique characteristic is its timing, specifically designed for New Year’s Day morning. It caters to individuals seeking a structured run to begin the year, rather than a spontaneous jog.

Salt Lake City Marathon štartuje pri úpätí hôr pri Olympic Legacy Bridge v areáli University of Utah, potom klesá smerom do mesta a končí na Library Square v centre. Tento aprílový cestný beh, čo sa behá od 2004, má ako hlavnú udalosť full marathon v rámci väčšieho pretekárskeho víkendu, kde nájdeš aj half marathon, 10K, 5K, Kids K a cyklojazdu. Full a half marathon majú spoločný štart a cyklojazda ide po maratónskej trase už ráno. Na pretek chodia od maratóncov, čo hľadajú rýchly klesák, až po rodiny, čo idú kratšie trate, pričom Kids K je pre deti do 10 rokov. Trať vedie z vyššie položených miest nad Salt Lake City cez centrum mesta, ide po častiach Wasatch foothills a pokračuje do blízkych Millcreek a Holladay predtým, než sa stočí späť k cieľu v centre. Bežci majú nerušený výhľad na Wasatch Mountains, no trasa zostáva vyslovene mestská, prechádza cez štvrte, miestne ulice, obchody a hlavné cesty, nie cez traily. Half marathon je prevažne rovinatý alebo z kopca. Traťové rekordy maratónu sú 2:15:14 u mužov a 2:30:08 u žien. Pretek pôvodne organizoval Devine Racing, prešiel viacerými zmenami vlastníkov a teraz už ponúka štandardné vymoženosti veľkých pretekov: zabezpečené trate, tričká, medaily, štartové čísla s čipom, darčeky od sponzorov a pozávodné stretnutie s jedlom, pitím, hudbou a aktivitami.
