Course:
The Summerlin Half Marathon course will start and finish at the beautiful JW Marriott Resort & Spa in the southeast parking lot. The first half mile is a slight incline that takes you out of the JW Marriott, up Canyon Run Drive to the entrance of the first park trail.
You will then enjoy the next 2 miles of downhill.
The following 4 miles are a gradual uphill of approximately 600 feet.
At approximately mile 5, you will encounter the Crestdale Bump! :) (this is a very short hill over the I-215 overpass)
The last 6.5 miles are a sweet downhill!…but, look out for Mt. Cottonwood at mile 10, another little bump coming out of the last park! :) At this point, kick in that extra energy reserve and push the last 3 miles downhill to cross the finish line…don’t forget to smile for the photographer!! :)
