Sun Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool conditions, steady winds
Runners will face a cool start at 35°F, with temperatures rising to 51°F by the end. Winds from the south at 7 mph, with gusts up to 27 mph, will create some challenges. Runners should dress in layers and consider pacing conservatively to manage the cool temperatures effectively.
The Sun Marathon has four distances. Full Marathon, Half Marathon, 10K and 5K. This race purpose is to get runners out of the cold and into the warmth of Southern Utah in the St. George/Santa Clara Area. Though the courses are primarily downhill over the distance there are some rollers and a few climbs. The views during this race are great with huge red rock mountains all around to views of Gunlock Reservoir during the Marathon and a nice river along the Full and Half Marathons. Source
