About the race
McCoy Flat Death Race takes place at McCoy Flats Trail Head in Vernal, Utah, offering a rugged desert endurance challenge. The race features a 4.1-mile lap completed on an hourly cadence, with each participant aiming to finish within one hour or be eliminated; the format continues until a sole runner remains. The atmosphere emphasizes grit and persistence in the North Eastern Utah desert landscape.
Per-lap cash prizes reward effort: the final runner earns $50 for every lap completed, with second and third place paying $20 and $10 per lap respectively. All runners receive custom medals, swag bags, and race shirts, with a shirt-guarantee for early registrants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
