Race Information

Here’s your chance to run in the wild west on the historic Pony Express Trail in western Utah. This is a 100 mile and 50 mile run. The course is VERY remote and a support crew is required to provide support along the way. The course is 100% dirt road and only has about 3,000 feet elevation gain/loss.

This race is ideal for first-time 50 and 100-milers and the “elderly” runner. Each year half of the finishers are usually first-time finishers of that distance. This is a very fast course.
