Moab Run the Rocks

Moab Run the Rocks is held in Moab, Utah, on March 6, 2027, with two ultra-distance formats. The Full Pint covers 53.6 miles (86.3 km) and the Half Pint 33.1 miles (53.3 km). Start times are not listed, and no elevation figure is published for either course.

The name and the setting make this an off-road day on desert terrain, so plan for footing that changes constantly and for a pace well below what you would run on pavement. The Half Pint is a step beyond a 50K and suits runners who have already finished an ultra or a long trail marathon. The Full Pint is a full day out and asks for back-to-back long runs, a tested nutrition plan and the discipline to walk the climbs early rather than late. In dry country, rehearsing how much you carry and drink per hour matters as much as the mileage itself.
