    The Cedar Valley SportsPlex Pump and Run 1-mile & 5K is back for year four! This event also include a free public health expo on Friday night during the pump and packet pickup. The goal of the health expo is to let the public interact with as many of the amazing businesses, organizations, and non-profits in the Cedar Valley as possible.

    FREE KIDS REGISTRATION Thanks to our amazing sponsor kids ages 1-12 will be able to participate in either the 1-mile or the 5K at no cost.

    HOW DOES THE PUMP-N-RUN WORK?

    Bench press and bicep curl a percentage of your body weight at the health expo to earn a reduction in your 5K time! You’ll receive 10 seconds off your 5k time for every repetition that you complete! Don’t want to Pump? You can still participate without a reduction in time!
