Lace up your shoes for the Winter Running Series 10K, taking place on February 28, 2026, in scenic Ogden, UT. This popular 6.2-mile race is a key event within the four-part Winter Running Series, designed to keep runners motivated and prepare them for springtime events like the renowned Ogden Marathon. Participants can expect typical race day conditions to be crisp, with highs around 48°F and lows around 30°F, and only a 6% chance of precipitation.

The 10K course on February 28th begins and ends at the Dee Events Center. While specific elevation details for this particular 10K are not extensively detailed, the broader Winter Running Series is known for its connection to the incredibly scenic Ogden Marathon, which often features gentle downhill sections and breathtaking views of Ogden Canyon and the Ogden River Parkway. Runners will find excellent support throughout the event, including professional timing, well-stocked aid stations with water and Gatorade, and portable restrooms at both the start line and aid stations. Finishers are greeted with cheers from dedicated GOAL volunteers and staff, along with welcome treats like water, Gatorade, Daily Rise coffee, hot cocoa, salty snacks, and fruit.

What truly sets the Winter Running Series apart is its vibrant community atmosphere and commitment to helping runners achieve their goals through the colder months. Many participants credit the series with building confidence, with some even progressing from 5K distances to tackling their first half marathon. Every 10K finisher earns a well-deserved medal, and those participating in the full series receive an additional fifth medal. With no official cutoff time and course support for those maintaining an average pace of 20 minutes per mile, this event welcomes runners of all levels to "Get Out And Live!"
