RUN FOR A CAUSE — RUN HEBER

Runtastic HEBER represents more than just fast times and scenic miles — it’s a race with purpose.

Join us in experiencing the breathtaking beauty of Heber Valley as you race an all-downhill half marathon course, surrounded by stunning mountain views and the crisp canyon air of the Wasatch Mountains. Whether you’re chasing a personal record or simply enjoying the scenery, this race offers something for everyone.

This year marks an exciting new chapter. We’re proud to partner with Women of the Wasatch, a local nonprofit empowering women of all backgrounds to connect, lead, thrive, and build community through trail running.

This partnership is the first of many meaningful causes we plan to support in the years ahead — because running for something bigger should continue to grow.

Make Runtastic HEBER a tradition for your family. Enjoy an unforgettable race, a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere, and the opportunity to give back.

Let’s run for something powerful. #RunHeber

A portion of every registration goes to local charity, Women of the Wasatch.

BIBS & TIMING BY The Race Time

The HEBER Half Marathon, 5K, and All-Abilities 1/2 Mile Run will be professionally timed. The chips will be attached to the back of your bib number. Please don’t wrinkle or stuff the bib in your pocket.

The Top Three Overall Male and Female finishers will be determined by gun time (regular timing). The Age Group awards will be determined by using Chip Time.

  • GUN Time is the time elapsed from the sound of the gun to the finish line.
  • CHIP Time is the real time from when the runner crosses the starting line to crossing the finish line.

Results are available in the following ways:

  • On the screen at the gray “Results” Trailer
  • Printed personal results at the gray “Results” Trailer
  • Online at RESULTS

NOTE: If you alter or damage your chip your time may not be read correctly. Wear your bib on the outermost layer of clothing.
