Celebrate family fitness this fall at the inaugural Utah Marathon and Fittest State Festival, Oct. 11-13. While the Utah Marathon, on Saturday, Oct. 13, is sure to bring many serious athletes to its starting line, the Fittest State Festival encourages the inner athlete in everyone to get moving towards a healthier lifestyle. To entice families to ditch the couch and get outside to play, the Utah Marathon, in partnership with Winder Farms, has designed the Family Fit Plan, an affordable way to participate in the recreational events taking place on Oct. 13. Participation in the Family Fit Plan is simple. When one family member registers for an event on Oct. 13 (listed below), each additional family member of the same household, can participate in an equal-or-lower priced event for only $10, subsidized by Winder Farms. The family with the most participants will win a full Thanksgiving dinner, donated in kind by Winder Farms. Participants can take part in one of five events: the full 26.2-mile marathon, which winds from Library Square to Olympus Hills Park and back, a 13.1-mile half marathon, the CRAZY LEGS 5k run/walk, or a 25-mile bike tour along the marathon route. There’s also a one-kilometer “Kids K” for children, and live entertainment and festivities will take place at the “Fit Stock” Finish Line Festival in Library Square throughout the day.
