The park that provides the world with the most recognizable images of Utah's Mighty 5® (Delicate Arch is on the state's license plates!), serves as the backdrop for our most popular longer distance race, the Arches Half Marathon. It's enough to push yourself but won't make your knees give you side eye. Run or walk your way through a guided route using the RaceJoy app and wear your earned swag as an official Arches Half finisher.

The Arches Half is special on its own but wait 'till you see what she does in a series. This race is the fourth in a journey athletes around the world are taking to complete 369 miles in under 4 months. There are four additional races to add on including the Zion 5k, Bryce Canyon 8k, Capitol Reef 10k, and Canyonlands Marathon to complete all Mighty 5® national park races as part of our Mighty Challenge package. If you only signed up for the Arches Half and are interested in adding more races in the series or go full-on by taking on the Mighty 5 Challenge, please email us at info@highaltitudeevents.com.
