SUMMARY:Zion Half Marathon
DESCRIPTION:Experience the Beauty and Challenge of the Zion Half Marathon\nAre you an avid runner looking for your next challenge? Look no further than the Zion Half Marathon. Held annually in the stunning Zion National Park\, this race is not only a test of physical endurance but a treat for the senses. In this blog post\, we’ll explore everything you need to know about the Zion Half Marathon\, including what to expect on race day\, training tips\, and why this race is a must-do for runners of all levels. \nThe Course:\nFirst things first\, let’s talk about the race itself. The Zion Half Marathon is a 13.1-mile course that winds through some of the most breathtaking scenery in the country. The course begins in the town of Virgin\, Utah\, and quickly climbs into the heart of Zion National Park. Runners will pass through picturesque red rock canyons\, alongside the Virgin River\, and up to the finish line at the Zion Canyon Village. The course is challenging\, with several steep inclines and descents\, but the stunning views and invigorating atmosphere make it all worthwhile. \nThe Training:\nNow\, let’s talk about training. If you’re planning on running the Zion Half Marathon\, it’s important to start training well in advance. We recommend a training plan of at least 12 weeks\, incorporating both cardiovascular exercise and strength training. Hill repeats and trail running are especially beneficial for preparing your body for the elevations and varied terrain of the course. Additionally\, it’s a good idea to practice running in all weather conditions—after all\, race day could bring sunshine\, wind\, or even a little rain. \nThe Preparation:\nAnother important factor to consider when preparing for the Zion Half Marathon is hydration and nutrition. The race takes place in the desert\, so staying hydrated is crucial for both performance and safety. We recommend drinking plenty of water in the week leading up to the race\, as well as carrying water or a hydration pack during the race itself. As for nutrition\, it’s important to fuel your body with a balance of carbohydrates and protein leading up to race day. On the morning of the race\, a light breakfast such as a bagel with peanut butter and a banana can help provide the energy you need to power through those tough hills. \n\n \nThe Event:\nNow that you’re prepped and ready for race day\, let’s talk about why the Zion Half Marathon is such a special event. For starters\, the race offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature in one of the country’s most iconic national parks. The challenging course and stunning scenery create an unforgettable experience for runners. Additionally\, the Zion Half Marathon is a small race\, with a limit of just 1\,500 participants\, ensuring a sense of community and camaraderie among runners. \nIf you’re a fan of running and exploring the great outdoors\, the Zion Half Marathon is an event not to be missed. From the challenging course to the stunning scenery\, this race offers a one-of-a-kind experience for runners of all levels. So lace up your running shoes\, start training\, and get ready to take on the Zion Half Marathon. We guarantee it will be a race you’ll never forget. \nCheck out our race catalog for more exciting races.

SUMMARY:Three Capes Relay
DESCRIPTION:Course Highlights\nThe Three Capes Relay follows the legendary Three Capes Scenic Loop on Oregon’s northern coast\, passing through or adjacent to six state parks\, two national wildlife refuges\, and multiple county parks. Starting beside Cape Meares Lake\, the five-leg\, marathon-distance course traverses Cape Meares Lighthouse\, the cliffs above Oceanside\, the Whiskey Creek Fish Hatchery\, Cape Lookout State Park\, and Sand Lake before finishing at Web County Park near Pacific City. Nearly 2\,400 feet of total climbing rewards runners with world-class ocean views at every headland. \nRace Details\nHeld on Saturday\, February 28\, 2026\, the relay begins as early as 7:30 a.m. for solo walkers/run-walkers\, with an 8:00 a.m. early start and the official 9:00 a.m. gun. Teams of 2 or 5 (including groups of 3-4 who sign up as a 5-person team) can split the five legs however they choose. Solo registration is $95\, two-person teams $165\, and five-person teams $339. The race serves as a fundraiser supporting Tillamook High School athletics. \nWhy Runners Love It\nThe Three Capes Relay captures everything that makes Oregon coast running special: dramatic ocean headlands\, working farms\, forested canyons\, and the raw beauty of a February storm coast. The five legs range from ‘easy’ to ‘extremely difficult\,’ so teams can assign legs based on ability. February weather adds an element of authentic Pacific Northwest adventure — waterproof layers and reflective vests are part of the experience. \nRace-Weekend Tips\nWear a reflective vest or bright clothing — the road is not closed to traffic. Study the leg difficulty ratings and assign your strongest runners to Legs 1 and 3. Book lodging in Pacific City or Tillamook early; February weekends on the coast fill up with storm-watchers and race teams alike. The new Web County Park finish is more accessible than the historic Cape Kiwanda beach finish. \nTackle Oregon’s most dramatic coastal relay — register at RunSignup.
