The Half Marathon will start at the marina and run south along the Mountain View Trail, turn around at the 6.55 mile mark and return to the marina. The 50K will start and finish at the marina and run the course in a clockwise direction. Basically, start at the marina, go south to the Mountain View Trailhead and continue on the Mountain View Trail to the Ranch. Continue south of the Ranch (NOTE: this IS a drop bag location) on the dirt road, then head up the Sentry Peak Trail until you get to the North Sentry aid station. Then head downhill all the way to the shoreline. Continue to follow the old ranch road/trail until you get to the top of the switchbacks on the Split Rock Trail. Go down the switchbacks, then up Death Valley. You’ll see the Elephant Head aid station in the distance. After Elephant Head, continue on the White Rock Trail until you get to the White Rock trailhead. There will be an aid station here (NOTE: This is not a drop bag location). Turn right and follow the dirt road along the chain link fence all the way to the Mountain View Trail. Head north on that trail until you finish. Between the North Sentry aid station and the top of the switchbacks, there will be no course markings, but the trail is super easy to follow and no one has gone off course in this section.

This is a wonderful course around Antelope Island with great views of the Great Salt Lake. Most of the elevation gain is within the first 15 miles. Some hills were -at least for me- challenging. 2nd half of the trail is basically flat. We run through a herd of bison -’twas fun-! Aid stations are well supplied and at the end you’ll be rewarded with cold beer and a bowl of delicious chili.
