About This Race
The St. George Marathon is consistently voted one of America's most beautiful marathons — a point-to-point BQ course through southwestern Utah's surreal red rock canyon country. The course starts on Snow Canyon State Park's lava field rim, descending through vermillion cliffs and canyon walls, with Zion National Park's white-and-red sandstone towers visible, and finishing through St. George's green valley. Lottery entry and fast enough for thousands of BQs each year.
