Jordan River Marathon

The Jordan River Marathon takes place on the Jordan River Parkway Trail, a 40 mile trail from which a 26.2 mile marathon course uses selected scenic miles along the river. The route passes wetlands, parks, golf courses, ponds and several bridges, and is marked with pink flags, ribbons, signs and trail marshals.

Available distances:

  • 26.2 miles Marathon
  • 13.1 miles Half Marathon

Race services and amenities include a well marked course, well stocked aid stations with Gatorade, water, Honey Stinger gels and waffles, fruit, and occasional snacks. Runners receive a high quality race shirt and a custom locally made finisher medal; age-division medals are awarded for top finishers in listed age groups. The half marathon has overall awards for male and female places and additional gift cards for top finishers.

Packet pickup is available Friday 3 pm to 6 pm at Salt Lake Running Company, 8946 S State St, Sandy, UT 84070, and race day pickup begins at the starting line at 5:30 am.
