The Early Years
2008Established in 2008, the Mountain Goat Half Marathon is now 18 years old. From its first edition in Ketchum, it has evolved into a race that reflects the character of its host region in United States.
コースと標高
Starting in downtown Ketchum, runners ascend through the scenic Wood River Valley with stunning views of Bald Mountain. The course follows rolling terrain through pine forests and mountain meadows, with the turnaround at the summit viewpoint before descending back to downtown. The combination of altitude (starting at 5,850 ft), sustained climbing, and scenic mountain vistas creates a challenging but rewarding experience.

レースの伝説
The Hills That Break You
With 580m of elevation gain, the Mountain Goat Half Marathon is not a course for the faint-hearted. The climbs are where races are won and lost — where the gap between training and undertrained reveals itself without mercy. Locals say the course doesn't beat you; it just waits for you to beat yourself.
