Pro tips

  1. 01

    Respect the Rolling Hills

    The course is as flat as Idaho Falls allows, but the description notes rolling rural hills in the foothills. Pace conservatively early so you have energy for the later miles.

  2. 02

    Point-to-Point Logistics

    The race starts in Wolverine Canyon and finishes at Snake River Landing. Arrange your transport to the start in advance, as you won't be finishing where you park.

    Heat Management

    Typical race day temperature is 24C. Start hydrating before the race and take water at every aid station to manage the warmth.
