Bear Lake Marathon



This is marathon two in the 5 star quest.

The Marathon course will begin on the east side of the lake. This is one of the most scenic parts of the lake where it has beautiful beaches, fields and mountains. There is little traffic on this side and extends for almost 16 miles. The last portion of the course will continue around Laketown, Rendezvous Beach and Ideal Beach Resort. Ideal Beach Resort is where you will enter on the paved bike trail that will take you to the finish line at the Garden City Park.

This marathon was specifically designed for the 50 State club marathoners that have requested to run in two different states, during the same weekend, while they are staying in the Bear Lake area. Bear Lake sits on the state line between Utah and Idaho. The road around the lake is just over 50 miles. Marathoner’s that participate in both marathons, will be able to boast about running around the entire Bear Lake in one weekend.
Bear Lake Idaho Marathon will have an "early start" on Friday, June 8, at 4:00a.m.
This course will actually start in Garden City Park in Utah. The race will finish at the Idaho State Park on the East side of the Lake.  The hills at the end but that eliminates the busiest section of the road in the early morning before the traffic picks up. Both parks are along the main road that wraps around the Bear Lake.
Aid stations throughout the course: Water, Gatorade, energy gel, and fruit.
Multiple restrooms are located at the start and finish lines. There are also restrooms available throughout the course.
Finishing medals and running shirts will be provided to all runners.
Official times will be posted on the web site shortly after the race.
There will not be any busing for this race, but there will be transportation available after the race for those needing transportation back to the Garden City Park.
