  Voted Utah’s “Best Running Event” and “Best Half Marathon,” the University of Utah Health Salt Lake City Marathon Presented by Bank of America returns for its 23rd annual event on April 25, 2026—where urban meets the mountains.

  Starting at the Olympic Legacy Bridge, this stunning course delivers sweeping views of the Wasatch Mountains while guiding runners through some of Salt Lake City’s most iconic neighborhoods, before finishing in the heart of downtown. Cross the finish line, soak in what you’ve just accomplished, and celebrate at the post-race party with friends and family.

  With 5 events to choose from—Full & Half Marathons, 10K, 5K, and a 1K Kids event—there’s truly "Something for everyone."

  Beautiful? Yes. Challenging? Absolutely. A Beautiful Challenge is what makes the Salt Lake City Marathon a race you need to experience—and run—for yourself.

  The Lauren McCluskey Foundation’s Race for Campus Safety is an annual, community-driven event dedicated to raising awareness and funds to improve how colleges respond to relationship violence and stalking. Inspired by Lauren McCluskey’s life and legacy, the race brings together students, families, advocates, and campus communities in a shared commitment to systemic change. Participants of all ages run, walk, or volunteer to support the foundation’s mission of enhancing campus safety and accountability.

  More than just a race, the event creates a space for learning, connection, and collective action. Attendees enjoy access to resources, educational booths, live entertainment, cheer squads, sports mascots, and fun activities like inflatable obstacle courses and yard games. Proceeds directly support the foundation’s work in research, advocacy, and programming to make campuses safer nationwide.

  The 2026 Salt Lake City Race for Campus Safety will be held on October 31. Register early to take advantage of the early-bird rate for 2026! In 2025, we had over 800 participants come together as a community for our race and festival supporting awareness efforts for campus safety, and we can't wait to see you there in 2026. Choose from 1K, 5K, or 10K routes, meet and greet with mascots, and create or join a team!
