This race might feel like an easy glide—essentially a downhill course that helps conserve energy. Runners will experience stunning views of the Wasatch Range while navigating through Salt Lake City's streets, making the scenery as captivating as the race itself. However, don’t let the downhill trick you; pacing is crucial, especially in the later miles as fatigue sets in.
BMQR course profile: Downhill.
Start conservatively to avoid burning out from the downhill; maintain a steady effort instead of relying solely on speed. Pay attention to your pacing, especially in the second half when the terrain flattens out or when fatigue may set in.
