Dear Anchorage RunFest Community,
For 16 years, we’ve shared miles, cheers, and unforgettable triumphs with you. Through challenges and celebrations, your support has kept RunFest strong, and we are grateful for every runner, volunteer, and supporter who makes this event possible.
Anchorage RunFest is more than a race—it’s a tradition that celebrates resilience, health, and community spirit. With distances for everyone—from the United Physical Therapy 49K Ultra and Humpy’s Marathon and Relay, Half Marathon, 5K, and Kids’ events—there’s a place for all runners at our start lines.
We can’t wait to see you in August 2026, ready to train, run, and create new memories together!
With gratitude,
Melanie Clark & John McCleary
Co-Race Directors
Anchorage RunFest is the largest event and the main fundraiser of the Anchorage Running Club
