For a true test of strength and endurance, try the Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run which is held in Utah every year on the first weekend after Labor Day. This is one of the premier endurance runs in the Northwest and will take the runner through some of the most beautiful, scenic part of the Wasatch Mountains.
The Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run is a unique and challenging ultra running events in the world. The run stretches from Layton, Utah to The Homestead in Midway, Utah and covers some of the most beautiful scenery the Wasatch Mountains. There is a cumulative elevation gain of approximately 26,882 feet, as well as a cumulative loss of approximately 26,131 feet throughout the course.
It is a study in contrasts with its array of peaks and valleys, trails – heat and cold, wet and dry weather. This run can be the best and the worst all at the same time. Because the course is primitive and isolated it is a unique course of both beauty and challenge. As is the norm in all endurance races, the individual runner must rely primarily on himself or herself.
