EJ-Scott-to-Run-7th-Marathon-in-Utah-on-Tuesday-July 24

EJ is in Salt Lake City, Utah right now preparing for his next marathon, Deseret News Marathon Race. this will be the 7th of his 12 marathons and takes place this Tuesday, July 24, 2012.

First run in 1970, the Deseret News Marathon is the oldest road race in Utah and the oldest marathon west of the continental divide! The marathon follows the path that the Utah pioneers followed when they first entered the valley. The race is truly a part of Utah’s heritage and history!!

The race takes place on Pioneer Day every year. The Marathon, 10k, and 5k routes all join the Days of 47 Parade route as they turn onto 200 East. Once runners join the parade route they will be greeted by over 100,000 cheering Utahns!!! Running down the parade route is a running experience that can’t be duplicated anywhere!

Last night, EJ appeared at the Laughing Stock US for his before the marathon fundraiser to benefit Choroideremia. If you didn’t make it,be sure to check out @curechm for more info or go to http://choroideremia.org/ on how you can help his charity.
