Course Description
The Marathon starts at North Fork Park, in Liberty Utah. North Fork Park is located in the shadow of Ben Lomond Peak in Ogden Valley. The Half Marathon, or Half +1 as we like to call it because it is 14.1 miles, will start at the top of the North Ogden Divide.
The marathon course starts with a 6 mile climb up the Ben Lomond trail, to the ridge line where it will connect to the Skyline trail. From there runners will head southeast toward the North Ogden Divide, the start line of the Half. From the North Ogden Divide the course will point uphill again and painful up it is. In a little more that 2.5 mile you will climb 1625 ft. The course follows the Southern Skyline Trail to the Wind Surfer Beach where it will connect to the Pineview trail and follow the shoreline of Beautiful Pineview Reservoir. The finish line will be located in the heart of Eden Utah at the Eden Park.
