Course, logistics and services
The half marathon runs down Cedar Canyon and finishes on Cedar City’s trail system, ending at the Bicentennial Park Soccer Fields. The route follows SR-14 into the Coal Creek Trail System and passes Canyon Park and Veterans Ball Fields. Cedar Canyon is closed to vehicle traffic on race day; the canyon reopens to traffic at 10:00 AM and runners must be off SR-14 by that time. Aid stations are placed roughly every 2 miles and provide water, electrolyte drinks, and gels; ham radio operators staff each station and an ambulance is stationed at the finish. Drop bags are collected at the start and transported to the finish; runners should label bags with name and contact information. A free shuttle service runs from the finish back to parked vehicles.
Awards, divisions and results
Age divisions are provided for men and women across standard ranges, and the top three in each age/gender division receive awards, along with overall male and female winners. Results will be posted online shortly after finish. Transfers or deferments are allowed until September 2, 2026, with associated fees and medical provisions.
