I've been training during the week on a treadmill to hit my Pace and Tempo goals, and on Saturdays I've been doing my long runs outside, mostly in the early morning hours.

Race Weather & Climate
Located in Utah’s southeastern corner, just over 120 miles northeast of Las Vegas, St. George typically experiences very hot summers, but moderately cool to cold weather conditions in January, when the city’s average monthly temperatures range between 29°F and 55°F.
On race day (Jan. 16), the average low is 29°F and its average high is 55°F, while rainfall totals average just under 1.3 inches and snowfall totals average about 1.5 inches for the month, making January the city’s wettest month of the year on average. From Half Marathons .net
I've been cycle commuting between my home and the Lehi Frontrunner train station, 9+ miles a few days a week. The amount of snow recently has slowed me down some. When I was much younger I was a year round cycle commuter, riding nearly 30 miles a day 4 days a week through the winter, rain, snow, ice, hail, whatever. I was much younger then. I'm much more fragile now.
I've had to dig around on the net some to get a course map and elevation profile, since the link on the official Half Marathon Website is broken.
Still no info on aid stations, etc, but I am planning on going self-sufficient, just like in training. That being said, the Pikes Ascent is best done self-sufficient due to the spacing between some of the aid stations. Unless you're doing a 3 hour ascent there will be some big gaps there.
