Get ready to experience the breathtaking beauty of Logan Canyon at the Three Dams 10 Miler, 10K, and 5K on Saturday, August 8, 2026, in Logan, UT. This picturesque event invites runners of all levels to traverse an engaging out-and-back course that gracefully follows the Logan River, showcasing the stunning First, Second, and Third Dams. As part of the Urban Trail Racing Series, it's an ideal opportunity to challenge yourself amidst nature's grandeur, or even as an unofficial training run for the Top of Utah Marathon.
The course, largely a dirt trail, offers a scenic journey through the beautiful canyon, with on-course restrooms available at key water stops, including the Stokes Nature Center, Second Dam Parking, and Spring Hollow Campground Bathroom. All distances kick off from the First Dam/Canyon Entrance Park, creating a vibrant hub of activity. Typical race day conditions in early August bring highs around 89°F and lows near 56°F, with a minimal 2% chance of precipitation, promising a bright, warm summer run.
Participants in the Three Dams races will receive a race entry, a unisex t-shirt, a finisher medal to commemorate their achievement, a SWAG bag, and an official race bib with timed results. While the scenic drive to the start is part of the experience, runners are encouraged to arrive early and consider carpooling due to limited parking at First Dam. This event offers a compelling blend of natural beauty and an encouraging community atmosphere, perfect for both seasoned trail runners and those looking for an unforgettable outdoor adventure.
