The Timp Trail Marathon and Half

Orem, United States • 16 May 2026

The Timp Trail Marathon and Half

The event is scheduled for Saturday, May 16, 2026, in Orem, Utah, with start and finish at Timpanogos Park. It offers two distance options:

  • Marathon
  • Half Marathon

Organizers state the marathon course is the same as last year and that the course description applies to both distances. The marathon course includes 5,883 feet of elevation gain. The terrain is described as 99.9 percent mountain trail and fire break roads, with only a few asphalt crossings at lower elevations.

Runners may encounter technical sections of ascent and descent and varied conditions including snow, rain, mud, potential stream crossings, and abundant rocks. There will not be porta johns, mile markers, spectators, or volunteers marking the route; the course should be treated like an ultra distance event. Organizers recommend participants know the course, run with someone who knows the course, or be able to follow the course description or GPX course maps.

Registration information notes that registration closes on Friday, May 15 at 11:59 PM Mountain Time and that late registrants are not guaranteed a race shirt. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
