Athletics: Premier Event Management announces the Inaugural running of the Wasatch Front 10K

Premier Event Management in conjunction with the Dannon Company, the Daily Herald newspaper, and the Utah Valley Convention & Visitors Bureau announced today the inaugural running of the Wasatch Front 10K road race which is scheduled for Saturday, June 18, 2005 in Provo, Utah. This new fitness event will be open to all runners, walkers and physically challenged athletes wishing to set a new personal goal for the 10K distance.

The 2005 Wasatch Front 10K will offer a $20,000.00 prize purse as part of the Trigenix Championship, which will be distributed to the top 10 male and female competitors crossing the finish line in beautiful LaVell Edwards Stadium on the campus of Brigham Young University. The 2005 Wasatch Front 10K will also offer a special $1,500.00 prize purse which will be awarded to the top three male and female Utah residents crossing the finish line. For detailed information on the 2005 prize purse please check out www.runthefront.com.

"We are very excited about the opportunity to work with our many sponsors, city officials and BYU on the newest fitness event to hit the mountain west," stated Bill Burke, president and event organizer for Premier Event Management. The opportunity presented itself for a major 10K fitness event after months of work with the Provo Mayors office, members of the Utah Valley Convention & Visitors Bureau, former Olympian and BYU Cross Country coach Ed Eyestone and of course Brigham Young University. "This event, because of its easy distance of only 6.2 miles and the healthy regional lifestyles that so many follow, create the potential for the next mega 10K running event to come out of the state of Utah and the campus of BYU."

To assist athletes in reaching their personal goals at the Wasatch Front 10K, Premier Event Management has joined forces with Ed Eyestone. Ed will share his many years of 10K training experience as he provides the Wasatch Front with a special 90 day training schedule tailored to the casual jogger, walker, or advanced runner. The 2005 Wasatch Front 10K training schedule will be available in copies of the Daily Herald newspaper and on our web site at www.runthefront.com after January 31, 2005.
