Run it your way

What's your 5K?

Everyone shows up for a different reason. All of them count.

  • Chase a PR

    Race yourself on a fast, flat course. Timed every week, so you always know where your fitness is.

  • First 5K

    Start somewhere. We'll be cheering the whole way.

  • Walk It

    No minimum pace. Take your time. A tail walker is always last, so you never will be.

  • Bring Friends

    Make Saturday morning social. Stick around after and go get breakfast.

  • Bring the Family

    Get outside and move together. Strollers welcome where the trail allows.

  • Volunteer

    You don't have to run to belong. Help make it happen.

Community

Come for the 5K.
Stay for the people.

Fast or slow doesn't matter here. Showing up does. The runner chasing a PR and the neighbor walking their first 5K cross the same finish line, get the same cheer, and then stand around talking to the same people.

Friends running togetherRoommates, classmates, coworkers. Saturday turns into the standing plan.
Parents and their kidsOne pushes, one sprints ahead, one keeps everyone honest. All of them finish.
Walkers, talking the whole waySome of the best conversations in Provo happen at walking pace.
Finish fast, then cheer each other onCross the line, turn around, clap the next person home. Every week.
Volunteers cheering you homeScanning barcodes, calling out names, making sure nobody finishes to silence.
Hang out together afterThe 5K is the excuse. Sticking around, meeting people and cheering the last finisher in is the point.

Students and new arrivals

Your new Saturday morning tradition.

  • Grab your roommates.
  • Meet new people.
  • Run hard. Walk easy. Volunteer.
  • Stick around after.
  • Then go get breakfast.

New in town? This might be the fastest way to meet people.

Register Free (it takes 2 minutes)

How parkrun works

Register once. Come whenever.

  1. Register once

    Registration is free and takes two minutes. You'll get a personal barcode.

    Register at parkrun.us →

  2. Bring your barcode

    Printed or on your phone. Scan it at the finish so your time gets recorded.

  3. Show up Saturday

    Run, walk, volunteer, meet people. Then come back whenever you want.

Your parkrun registration works at parkrun events around the world.

Families

Saturday mornings are better together.

Families and young runners are welcome. parkrun is built to be a positive, supportive place for people of every age and ability, where a seven-year-old's first finish gets exactly the same cheer as the fastest runner of the day.

Young participants should follow current parkrun policies on participation and supervision; the details are on the parkrun US site when you register.

Register the whole family

Volunteer

You don't have to run to be part of parkrun.

parkrun is powered entirely by community volunteers wearing very bright vests. No experience required, and simple instructions are provided. Many roles let you still run or walk the course too.

  • Course setupCones, signs, flags. Early bird special.
  • MarshalingPoint, clap, cheer. Repeat.
  • TimekeepingPress a button as people finish. Feel powerful.
  • Barcode scanningBeep. Beep. High five. Beep.
  • 42Finish tokensHand each finisher their place. Be the good news.
  • Tail walkingWalk the whole course last, so nobody ever is.
  • Event cleanupLeave the lake nicer than we found it.

Ready to help?

Volunteering starts with the same free registration, which is how your volunteer credit gets recorded. Register, then find a hi-vis vest at the start area any Saturday and say hello.

Register to Volunteer

A healthier community starts by showing up.

We want a Saturday morning that people across Utah County can count on: a place to move together, meet each other, and build something real, without cost ever being the reason someone stays home.

Come once. Come occasionally. Come every week.
No team required. No entry fee. No minimum pace.
Just show up and move with us.
