Event
Details
Designed as both a celebration of America's Independence Day and as a
race that gives runners a chance to experience the rugged, mountainous
beauty of northwestern Utah's Ashley National Forest and Uintah Canyon,
the Neola American Pride Half Marathon & 5K will feature a
course with numerous uphill and downhill stretches, especially in the
race's first few miles, followed by a long, steady section mixed with
flat and downhill stretches toward the
finish line at Neola Community Park.
Participating runners will need to arrive at Neola Community Park
before 5:30 AM in order to sign in and board the bus that will take
them to the starting line, which lies up the nearby mountains in Uintah
Canyon. The event's 5K race will start at 7:00 AM; those running in the
5K are asked to meet at Neola Community Park before 6:45 AM to sign in
and be ready to start the race at 7 AM.
