The Experience

Set against the majestic Teton Range, the Grand Teton Half Marathon offers a breathtaking journey through Jackson Hole. This annual event, first run in 2015 and now in its 10th edition, draws runners from across the country, with recent fields numbering around 1856 finishers.

The course is a fast, net-downhill road race, making it a prime candidate for personal bests. Runners will experience the unique landscape of Wyoming, with the dramatic peaks of the Tetons as a constant backdrop. The relatively mild weather, typically ranging from 39-69°F, adds to the pleasant race-day conditions.

While the repeat-runner rate is modest at about 3%, the race's growing field size and geographic draw speak to its appeal as a destination event. The finish line celebration in Jackson provides a fitting reward for conquering this scenic challenge.
