 "My Favorite Race!" (about: 2013)
1 previous marathon
| 1 Big Cottonwood Marathon
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 I ran the half marathon last year and the full marathon in 2013. This is by far my favorite event and I plan to participate in either race each year. The organization is amazing and the really know how to spoil the runners. This is the event that every other race I run is compared to. | |

"Favorite Utah Race!" (about: 2013)
11-50 previous marathons
| 2 Big Cottonwood Marathons
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 Big Cottonwood is a remarkably well organized and a high quality race, especially given that it is only three years old. I've ran the marathon the past two years, and undoubtedly will come back every year in the future. | |

 "bus issue and uphill at the end." (about: 2013)
1 previous marathon
| 1 Big Cottonwood Marathon
COURSE: 3 ORGANIZATION: 2 FANS: 3 Overall the marathon was good. Obviously it was a bit annoying having to wait for the bus that was stuck at the guradsman's pass turnoff, and it would have been better if there was a way to have the course be downhill at the end rather than flat/uphill, but I thought it was a good course overall. | |

COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 This Marathon is about as amazing as it gets for a road race. Beautiful scenery, gentle down hill all the way, great aid stations and an energetic finish line! Thanks for the awesome experience. I will definitely be running this again! | |

"Great race, the fastest full course I've run!" (about: 2013)
6-10 previous marathons
| 1 Big Cottonwood Marathon
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 This race is fast! It is tough coming from such a downhill grade to a flat or slight incline for the last 8-9 miles, but anyone would do fine if they train specifically for that. If you want to PR, or qualify for Boston, you should definitely look into this race! | |

"My favorite marathon so far" (about: 2013)
6-10 previous marathons
| 1 Big Cottonwood Marathon
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 5 This is the first marathon that I was excited to run, without feeling that dreadful feeling of running 26.2 miles. I had heard how great the Big Cottonwood Canyon marathon was, and it turned out to be true. It was perfect weather, a beautiful course, and so much fun. I think more people should try running this marathon. |
