Liberty Park Endurance Runs

Description

Join the Salt Lake City Track Club for the Liberty Park Endurance Runs. This is a fixed-time format race. Choose your event and complete as many miles as you can before time runs out. The race will be held at Salt Lake City’s Liberty Park on the paved multi-use path around the perimeter. Laps are approximately 1.4 miles long. Event options are 3 hr, 6 hr,12 hr (individual), and 12 hr relay (new for 2026!) but the possibilities are endless for this event. The fixed-time format allows everyone to go for their own goals, while still being able to see everyone in the event. Go for your first ultramarathon or set a new personal best at the marathon, 50 km, 50 mi, or 100 km distance. The top female and male in each event will receive a winner’s award. Event start times are staggered so that they all finish at the same time, 6 pm. After completing your distance, hang around to cheer on those still out there. On course hydration provided by Tailwind Nutrition.

The Course

The route is the paved loop around Liberty Park. One aid station will allow for easy access to sweet/salty snacks and liquids every loop, or setup your own area to grab things as you pass. This is a cupless event, so bring your own cup/water bottle.

Rules

All loops will be ran in the counterclockwise direction. Only full loops will be counted towards the total, e.g. once time runs out, no more laps will be counted. Any course cutting, littering, or disrespect will result in disqualification. Be nice to each other and volunteers; bad attitudes are not welcome. If 12 hr (individual) event registrants do not want to run for the entire 12 hr, they have the option to start anytime within the first 3 hr. You are also allowed to end your race early (just let a race volunteer know that you are finished). All 12 hr runners must start by 9 am. Regardless of start time, the event will conclude at 6 pm. 12 hr relay teams can have no more than four people. There are no specific rules about how teams have to break up the running duties, except that transitions must occur at the start line area. For example, teams are allowed to switch runners every lap, every 30 minutes, every hour, etc. Teams will be given one timing device that will record your team's laps.
