Utah Valley Marathon, Half Marathon, 10K & 5K Reviews
You can say what you want about the actual course, everyone has differing opinions about hills, steepness, etc., it's the atmosphere that makes this race so great! Not only do the race organizers make sure everything is top notch (expo, start line and finish line, aid stations), but you also have streets packed with people the last 6 miles, cheering you on and helping you fight your way to the finish. I absolutely love the support that Utah county gives for it's runners.

I participated for the first time this year (2026). The course is amazingly scenic. Support was excellent and consistent from start to finish. The people who put this on are pros. The cheerful and tireless volunteers are amazing!

I've run this marathon 3 years in a row, and the first 2 years were fantastic. I was disappointed to find that the blow up conquer the wall after the aid station at mile 19 was being taken down as I ran past. I took just over 5 hours to finish, and this was around 4 hours. There was at least an hour more of runners behind me and the wall was going to be gone for them. Very disappointed about that. The first time I ran it the inflatable wall really pushed me to finish when I wanted to quit. The race photos have also been fantastic quality, but this year they were blurry for the free ones, and $5 each for high res ones. I was planning on running this marathon every year for as long as I could, but after this year I'm not sure I want to run it again. We paid over $100 to run this race, and we don't get race photos or the inflatable wall.

This is my 4th half marathon, so I don't have a ton of races to compare this to, but I will say that relative to the other three I've done, this one was top notch! Amazingly well organized, fantastic course along a river for the first 7 or so miles in the shade, a cool river breeze, enthusiastic and positive energy from great volunteers, dialed in shuttle bus service to the start, great food goodies at the finish, results almost immediately, overall just a fabulous event and the first time I've said, "I'd do this one again!"

Always a great experience! I love this course and I've run it several times.

The race was well organized, the waves at the beginning of the half marathon made it easy to hit my stride and pace quickly rather than being shoulder to shoulder with the other racers. The finish line was such a great atmosphere!
