McCoy Flat Death Race

The McCoy Flat Death Race is a unique endurance running event held at McCoy Flats Trail Head in Vernal, Utah. Participants run a 4.1-mile course every hour on the hour, starting at 6:00 am. Runners must complete each lap within the hour to continue; failure to finish or start on time results in elimination.

The race continues until only one runner remains, who earns $50 for every lap completed. Second and third places also receive lap-based cash prizes. The event features custom medals, swag bags, and race shirts, with a challenging course set in the scenic northeastern Utah desert, offering a memorable and competitive atmosphere.
