Alaska Salmon Runs

The Alaska Salmon Runs, held in Cordova, Alaska, is a vibrant running event that takes place during the Salmon Jam Festival. Participants can choose from five distances: the King Salmon Marathon, Sockeye Half Marathon, Coho 10K, Humpy 5K, and Smolt One Mile Fun Run/Walk. The courses, which showcase the stunning Copper River delta, are primarily point-to-point, with shuttles provided to the starting points.

The event features a post-run salmon BBQ lunch and offers a unique blend of running, music, and community celebration. Registration is available online, with options for on-site registration for most events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
