The Marathon is a fast and scenic course which begins at South Fork Park and finishes in downtown Provo. The first 13 miles, which follows the same route as the Half Marathon, is a quick downhill through Provo Canyon, while the last half is a mostly flat run around Provo City (no quad killers here!). This is definitely the event to get your spring off to the right start and test your endurance after a long winter’s break. The finish line is always a party with live music, Magleby’s Fresh breakfast, massages, entertainment and activities for kids, and of course an abundance of random prize giveaways. The marathon and half marathon courses are USATF Certified and the marathon is a Boston Marathon Qualifier and part of th 2012 USATF Utah road racing circuit. All runners will be chip timed, receive gender specific performance tech shirts and awards will be given to the top three finishers in each age division. Marathon and Half Marathon finishers will also receive custom finisher medals.
