Alaska Distance Classic
Run 5k, 10k, or Double-Up! The Alaska Distance Classic starts at APU!
Choose your challenge: a 5K, a 10K, or conquer both with the Double-Up option for a total of 15K and a special finisher award. If you're sticking to the 5K or 10K, we have unique rewards for you too. Enjoy a refreshing root beer float!
The 5K will start 45 minutes before the 10K. If you plan on doubling up, you'll have 45 minutes to finish the 5K and make it to the 10K start line.
Experience a scenic run through the beautiful woods surrounding the University of Alaska and Alaska Pacific University campuses.
In tradition with previous years, this event includes awareness and a fundraiser for Special Olympics Alaska. Thank YOU for helping us support this incredible community organization. We look forward to partnering again and highlighting the world-class athletes from SOA, especially in an Olympic year!
