Park., United States of America · Saturday 6 June 2026
This June 2026 road marathon in Utah takes place at 1800+ meters elevation on a predominantly flat course with gentle rolling sections, making it a solid choice if you want to chase a good time without fighting major climbs. The high altitude means you'll need proper acclimatization if you're coming from lower elevations, so plan to arrive early and take it easy during training runs the first few days. Being a relatively small, regional race in Park, you can expect a quieter experience compared to major marathons, which appeals to runners who prefer fewer crowds but should prompt you to double-check course support details beforehand. The road surface and minimal elevation change make this a reasonable option for runners targeting a PR or practicing race-day execution, though the altitude will demand respect regardless of your fitness level.
