Event Overview
The Liberty Park Endurance Runs, organized by the Salt Lake City Track Club, is a fixed-time format event held at Liberty Park in Salt Lake City, Utah. Participants aim to complete as many miles as possible within a set timeframe on a paved multi-use path. The course consists of a loop around the park perimeter, with each lap measuring approximately 1.4 miles.
Race Format and Categories
The event features several duration-based options to allow participants to reach specific distance goals such as a marathon, 50 km, 50 miles, or 100 km. The categories include:
- 3 hour individual run
- 6 hour individual run
- 12 hour individual run
- 12 hour relay (teams of up to four members)
For the relay category, teams may divide the running duties as they choose, provided all transitions occur at the start line area. One timing device is provided per team to record total laps. All participants run in a counterclockwise direction, and only full laps completed before the time limit are counted toward the final total.
Course Details and Support
The route follows the paved perimeter of Liberty Park. One aid station is available on the course, providing sweet and salty snacks along with hydration provided by Tailwind Nutrition. This is a cupless event, and participants are required to bring their own reusable cups or water bottles. Runners also have the option to set up personal support areas along the path.
Awards are presented to the top female and male finishers in each event category. As a fundraiser, proceeds support the Salt Lake City Track Club, a non-profit organization dedicated to the local running community. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
