Great Pumpkin 5K

The Great Pumpkin 5K begins in Downtown Logan, Utah, starting and finishing behind Sol Speak Yoga. This fun run marks the start of the Holiday Racing Series and celebrates the fall harvest season. Participants can select either the standard 5K or the Haul a Pumpkin 5K, which requires carrying a pumpkin throughout the entire course. Pumpkins are provided by the organizers at check-in. The course winds through Downtown Logan and past the restored historic homes on Center Street. This race is connected to the Center Street Giant Pumpkin Festival, with the finish line leading into a day featuring over 150 vendors and food trucks. The festival has previously attracted more than 20,000 attendees and has showcased a Utah record giant pumpkin that weighed 2,289 pounds. Registration provides a swag bag, race bib, and raffle entry, aligning with the event's relaxed festival atmosphere rather than a competitive timed race.
