Join us for a morning of fun, fitness, and community while making a real difference for local families. From the 5k run and one-mile walk to the kids' race, music, refreshments, and silent auction, there's something for everyone. Best of all, every step you take helps Family Promise of Ogden provide shelter, stability, and hope for families with children experiencing homelessness.
September 26, 8:30 am, at Harrisville Park (see details and map below)
Event Description
A perfect path for everyone (see route maps below):
- Runners can chase their personal best on a 5K route that starts at the Harrisville Park Bowery, winds past the new Family Promise building, and then returns to the city park. Medals are awarded to the top runners.
- Walkers will enjoy a relaxed, non-timed, one-mile scenic route that begins and ends at the Bowery.
- Children under 12 years can test their running legs on their own one-mile fun run with movie characters cheering them on!
Children's Movie Characters will cheer and mingle during the kids' race. At 9:30, they'll line up for a meet-and-greet. Bring your camera for a fun photo to remember the race by!
Well Supported: Friendly volunteers, water stations, and first aid personnel will be available throughout the course to keep everyone safe, hydrated, and encouraged. Cross the finish line to cheering volunteers, dance to the music, browse the silent auction, and celebrate a great morning with friends and neighbors.
Affordable Fun: Low registration price of $10- $15. Register up to 8 family members from the same household for just $50!

More Than A Race
Family homelessness is often an invisible crisis, with children among the most vulnerable. Behind every statistic is a family working to stay together and provide stability for their children. Family Promise of Ogden helps families in our community prevent and overcome homelessness through shelter, resources, and personalized support that lead to lasting independence.
Because every dollar raised goes to Family Promise of Ogden, your participation creates lasting change in our community.
