Women’s epic 10k at deer valley resort

The race will start at 9am at the base of Deer Valley Resort near the Snow Park Lodge where you will hike, jog or run your 10k loop with roughly 1253ftft vertical elevation gain.

This 10k course is 1.5 miles of mostly steep uphill and then a gradual 4.5 miles downhill. This course weaves you uphill through a variety of landscapes including thick pines, gorgeous autumn trees, and open country. It’s sprinkled with flatter sections where you will be able to pick up the pace and enjoy the views. Please be courteous and allow runners to pass on the left.

There will be a strict cutoff at 10:00 am at Mile 1.5.

You’ll work your way up the Bald Eagle Hiking Trail with beautiful views of Park City. The better the views get, the closer you are to the top. Your first aid station will be at about 1.5 miles, at the Silver Lake Lodge with water, electrolytes and bathrooms. You’ll ring the bell then begin your descent. Your second aid station will be at about mile 4. The course is mostly downhill from there on out where you’ll run on a gorgeous single track on Mid-Mountain and Deer Crest.

You will be able to see the course you just conquered on your way down, breath the fresh mountain air, and run into the Women’s Epic after-party and vendor village where the music will be jamming and the crowd will be cheering you on as you run under the arch (we are getting chills just thinking about it)!
