About the race
The Cedar City event on September 11, 2027 includes a half marathon and an Adventure 5K that use Cedar Canyon and the Coal Creek trail system in Cedar City, Utah. All runners are transported by bus from the Heritage Center Theater Lobby (105 N 100 E, Cedar City, UT) to their respective start areas. The half marathon begins at Wood Ranch and the 5K begins further up the canyon near Rusty's Ranch House. The finish is at the Bicentennial Park Soccer Fields, 700 N 400 W, Cedar City, UT.
Course notes: the half marathon runs down Cedar Canyon along SR-14 before transitioning to the Coal Creek Trail System, passing Canyon Park and Veterans Ball Fields. Along the trail there are three road underpasses that allow runners to avoid street traffic.
Distances:
- Half Marathon down Cedar Canyon to Bicentennial Park Soccer Fields
