Yes, for the 50 miler and 55K. Pacers are allowed at the Zig Zag (Mile 32.8) and Mueller Park (Mile 37.5) aid stations. Zig Zag: From I-15 take the Centerville exit and head east as far as you can. You’ll see the driveway to head up on your left side. There will be a little parking lot right there. To the right about 300 ft’ up the service road will be the aid station. This is the Parish Creek Trailhead if you’re searching in maps or AllTrails. Mueller Park: In Bountiful. You’ll take 1800 S heading east towards the mountains. Just before the mouth of the canyon there is a church on the north side of the street. This is where the aid station will be located.

We have one cutoff at Mueller Park aid station #5. Runners must LEAVE the aid station by 5:00 PM to avoid being disqualified.
How will the course be marked?
The course will use blue flags for the entire race. We will not use any ribbon. We will not use any pink. Yellow caution tape & flags will be used for the WRONG WAY. If you see yellow, do not go that way. If you see pink, then someone other than DC Peaks put it there.
