New in 2022! This is a point-to-point course starting at 7 a.m. in beautiful Ogden Canyon and ending at our world-class finish line on Historic 25th Street. The 12K is a great event for friends and family of those running a longer distance race as it provides an opportunity to run or walk a 12K while waiting for their runner(s) to finish.

5K

The Ogden Marathon 5k is run over a portion of the final 3.1 miles of the marathon course. The race begins at the Junction Downtown headed out to the Ogden River Parkway, along the scenic river, then the final mile or so runs along Grant Avenue to the Finish Line.
