Run it your way

What's your 5K?

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

  • Chase a PB

    Test your fitness on a fast, flat course. Timed every week.

  • 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.

  • Bring Friends

    Make Saturday morning social. Then 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 and cheer for the same people.

Friends running togetherRoommates, coworkers, lab partners. Saturday is the standing plan.
A parent and a kidOne pushes, one sprints ahead, both finish.
Walkers talkingSome of the best conversations in Provo happen at 20 minutes per mile.
Fast finish, then cheeringSub-17 or sub-60, everyone turns around to clap the next person in.
Volunteers laughing at the finishScanning barcodes and handing out high fives, roughly equally.
Hanging around afterThe 5K takes 20 to 60 minutes. The standing around takes as long as you want.

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 — and 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 the same cheer as a sub-17.

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 — simple instructions 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 — it's 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.
