How Fast Can You Run A Mile?
Welcome to the Utah Mile!
The Utah Mile Challenge is a road running fitness race for folks of all ages and abilities. This event is designed to encourage you to set a PR at the mile distance with a course that is slightly downhill in the heart of Salt Lake City. Run hard, Run fast, and get rewarded!
NOTE: *Due to the recent Covid Pandemic, the race has converted into a virtual event, but modified awards and recognition will still happen! We, like you, cannot wait until restrictions for city racing lift and we can race like we used to! But until then, this is a magnificent opportunity to have fun, get some sweet swag, all while benefiting Challenged Athletes Foundation.
Race Date(s): Now thru 5/30/21
Once you have registered, you have until May 30th to run your fastest mile on our fast route! You can run as many times as you want to, but you can only submit one performance/result to us. We encourage you to do a trial run or two to understand the course and how to best navigate it for your best time.
We will mail out your participation packet on April 30th or May 30th depending on when you registered.
