Round Valley Trails:
This portion of Park City’s Trails is known for its easy access from all over Park City as well as its beginner-intermediate runner friendly trails.

Accessing the Quinn’s Junction Trailhead:
From Kimball Junction:
Take SR-224 into Park City. Take a left onto Kearn’s Blvd.  Continue East almost until you reach the freeway.  Take a left on Round Valley Way, like you are going to the hospital.  Instead of going to the hospital, you will take a left and drive around  the dog park and into Quinn’s Recreation Area.  Park in a designated spot.
From Highway 40:
Take I-80 and to SH-40 (if you are coming from Salt Lake City, you will pass the Kimball Junction Exit).  Go east on SH-40.  Take the second exit for Park City.  Take the first right, like you are going to the hospital.  Instead of going to the hospital, take a left onto Round Valley Way.  You will pass the dog park as you enter Quinn’s Recreation Area.

Start Time:
The 5k, 10k, and 15k will all start at 8:00 am.

Aid Stations:
5K: The 5k will not have an aid station on the course.  Water and gatorade will be provided at the start/finish area.
10k: The 10k will have two aid stations with water.
15k: The 15k will have three aid stations with water.

Mileage Markers & Trail Directions:
Mileage will be marked at every mile.  Directions at all trail junctions will also be marked.  All markers will be staked into the ground on the side of the trail.

Volunteers & Safety:
Safety is first priority for all R-U-N? Events.  If for any reason, runners need assistance in making it back to the start/finish area, volunteers placed along the course will be able to radio to the finish area for help.  As runners pick up their bib numbers at the start area, they will be “checked out.”  Once a runner crosses the finish line and the bib tag is pulled, the runner will be “checked in” and will be accounted for.  This will help to ensure all runners return safely back to the finish line.

Race-day Prizes:
Every other race out there includes a free t-shirt and it has been said, “I need another free t-shirt like I need a hole in my head.”  That is why the PC MTS will have unique prizes at each event. Both the male and female winner will be awarded a gift certificate to Salt Lake Running Co..  All age division winners will receive a free entry into a Park City Mini-Trail Series Event.

Packet Pickup and Parking:
All runners should park in the public parking spaces at Quinn’s Junction.  Parking is limited so please carpool.   Packet Pickup will be at Quinn’s Recreation Area near the concessions stand and restrooms.  All runners should bring confirmation of their registration in case any problems arise with finding your registration.  Only athletes that are going to be running should pick up their bib number because once the number is taken, the runner will be checked out and will not be checked back in until the racer crosses the finish line.

Post-Race Info:
The runner’s finish area will be nothing less than first class.  Food for the post-event area is donated by Einstein’s Bagels, and produce is provided by the Market at Park City- a local grocer.  Water and Gatorade will also be provided at the finish area.

Cancelation:
In the event that a registered runner can not attend, no refunds will be allowed.  In the event that weather prevents the event from safely taking place, the event will be canceled, and no refunds will be given.
