Your 10K course

Out-and-back along the marathon loop.

The 10K starts in downtown Malad City, heads out along the same scenic course you see here, turns around at the 5K mark, and comes back to the finish line. You’ll get a real taste of the dirt sections and valley views the bigger distances run.

Press play below to drive the course at runner’s-eye level.

Street-level tour of the actual marathon and half marathon. Soft packed dirt, quiet country roads, mountain walls on every horizon.

  • Half dirt, half pavement. Soft on the joints, fast on the watch.
  • Mountain walls on every horizon. Bannock Range to the east, Sublett Range to the west.
  • Wide valley views of barley fields, hay meadows, grazing horses, and big Idaho sky.
  • Quiet country roads. Almost zero traffic, real silence, real fresh air.
  • Crisp early-fall air at 4,500′ elevation. PR conditions for most runners.
