Rise and Run Half Marathon & 5k

Rise and Run – Half Marathon & 5K
Raising Awareness. Supporting Hope. Running for Mental Health.

Join us for the Rise and Run – Half Marathon & 5K, a community-driven event dedicated to shining a light on suicide awareness and promoting mental health and healing.

This meaningful race invites participants of all ages and fitness levels to rise up, come together, and run with purpose. Whether you take on the challenge of the half marathon or enjoy the 5K walk/run, your participation sends a powerful message of hope, connection, and support for those who are struggling—and those we've lost.

Event Details:

• Half Marathon (13.1 miles): A scenic and uplifting course that takes runners through the heart of Spanish Fork Utah, symbolizing the journey from darkness into light.

• 5K Run/Walk: A family-friendly option that welcomes all to walk, jog, or run in support of mental health awareness.

• Honor Wall & Tribute Bibs: Commemorate loved ones, celebrate survivors, and stand with those who are still fighting.

• Community Resource Fair: Mental health organizations, wellness providers, and support networks will be on-site to offer resources, education, and support.

• Speakers & Stories of Hope: Hear from those affected by suicide and mental health challenges, and find strength in shared experiences.

Why “Rise and Run”?
Because healing starts with action. Each step you take is a stand against stigma and a voice for those who feel voiceless. Mental health affects us all, and suicide is preventable. Let’s rise together—to remember, to support, and to bring hope to those who need it most.

Proceeds from the event will benefit local suicide prevention programs, crisis support services, and community mental health initiatives in the Spanish Fork area and beyond.

Rise early. Run with heart. Together, we can make a difference.
