Lace up your shoes for the Canyon Road 10K & 5K, a picturesque multi-surface race set to invigorate your spring on Saturday, May 2, 2026, in beautiful Logan, UT. This event offers an engaging 5K distance, welcoming both trail enthusiasts and road runners seeking a refreshing change of scenery. The out-and-back course treats participants to stunning views of Cache Valley, winding along a dynamic blend of paved and dirt paths. Be prepared for a challenge, as the 5K route is known for its steep elevation changes, making it a rewarding experience for those ready to push their limits.

Starting and finishing at the vibrant Merlin Olsen Central Park, the Canyon Road 5K promises a festive atmosphere to kick off the summer season. It's also a proud part of the Urban Trail Racing Series and serves as an unofficial training run for the Top of Utah Marathon. Typical race day conditions in early May feature pleasant highs around 63F and lows near 37F, with only a 9% chance of precipitation, ensuring comfortable running weather. Runners will receive a finisher medal, swag bag, and timed results to commemorate their achievement.

Please note that due to planned construction on Canyon Road throughout 2025 and 2026, the course layout may be subject to changes. However, organizers anticipate the race will still commence and conclude at Merlin Olsen Park. This event runs rain or shine, offering no refunds. This unique blend of challenging terrain, scenic beauty, and community spirit makes the Canyon Road 5K an ideal choice for your next race adventure.
