two free options for staying in SLC:
1)
http://fastrunningblog.com/forum/index.php/topic,1717.0.html2) we have two extra bedrooms and a very large couch -- room to sleep four. anyone is welcome any time. it's especially ideal for the des news marathon -- it's an early start time no matter where you live, but this could save you some time (and sleep) if you are planning to drive up on race morning. it's just under a mile jog to the trax line (which will get you to the start line of SLC or the bus loading for des news marathon). half mile from the des news finish line.
