Moab Trail Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool morning, warming finish
Runners will face a cool start at 42°F, gradually warming to 50°F by the finish. With light winds from the north, conditions will be manageable throughout the race. The hilly terrain will present challenges, particularly from miles 15 to 16 with a significant climb, while the tailwind between miles 4-5 and 11-12 offers some relief. Hydration will be key, especially as temperatures rise closer to the finish.

Race Info
The Moab Trail Marathon runs through Kane Creek Canyon and the Behind the Rocks Wilderness outside Moab, Utah, each November. Marathon and half marathon runners share the first 9.7 miles of singletrack and slickrock before splitting,, with views of the La Sal Mountains and the Colorado River corridor (the ladder-assisted slot-canyon climb is a feature of the companion 10K/Kids K courses, not the marathon/half route). The 2026 half marathon serves as the USATF Trail Half Marathon National Championship and the Collegiate Trail Running Championship. Source
