The Water’s Edge Resort Bear Lake Marathon Weekend offers a rare opportunity for endurance athletes to complete three races in three days across three different states: Idaho, Wyoming, and Utah. Designed with minimal travel logistics, each course starts and finishes within 45 minutes of each other, allowing runners to base themselves comfortably in Garden City, Utah or nearby towns. With scenic out-and-back routes, generous time limits (8 hours), and full course support, this event focuses on simplicity and raw natural beauty rather than large expos or entertainment. The Trifecta series rewards the fastest combined times with special awards, and each day includes age group recognitions. Whether running one race or all three, participants can expect crisp mountain air, lake views, and a peaceful, low-frills race experience designed for serious runners.
