Each November, fitness enthusiasts and families gather at the USU Legacy Fields in Logan for an exciting community tradition. This festive five-kilometer run and fun run invites participants of all ages to get moving on the crisp morning of Thanksgiving. Surrounded by friends who love the area, runners can enjoy a lively atmosphere before sitting down for their holiday feasts. Strollers are welcome at the back of the pack, ensuring everyone can join in the fun.

Sponsored generously by Gospel Peace Church, this popular event focuses on supporting Utah Foster Care each holiday season. Instead of standard entry fees, participants are encouraged to bring donations to support children in need throughout the community. Top male and female finishers receive special recognition, while fun prizes are raffled off during the award ceremony at the USU Legacy Fields in Logan. It is a wonderful way to give back while creating lasting memories with loved ones.
