Description:

Enjoy some of the best trails and scenery Davis County, Utah has to offer. The DC Peaks 50 is a point to point ultra marathon that will have you breathing heavy through a big smile. This 50 mile race is fun! It starts at East Mountain Wilderness Park in Kaysville and takes you on an adventure of trails (71%), service roads (24%), and 2.5 miles of paved road. You’ll hit a sweet climb on the Great Western Trail, go through some of the most popular hiking trails in Mueller Park, and end at Tunnel Springs Park in North Salt Lake. We guarantee it beats lying on the couch all day! It’s a tough course with approx 10,300’ of vertical gain and 8,637’ of descent – it’s designed to take you along trails with the best views in the area. The start line has an elevation of 4,888’. The average elevation of this race is 6,604’. This race was designed by ultra runners who felt Davis County needed a 50 miler. Many things make this race badass – A great course, fantastic people, live footage of the race on YouTube, and runner tracking that wasn’t invented in 1943! Holla! – See you kids in October!
