Over the Rainbow Runs

Over the Rainbow Runs A wildly beautiful 10K & Half Marathon trail race set among the bluffs of Kanab, Utah.

We're going for a "Saturday morning with friends" vibe - low key, high enthusiasm, inclusive to all, more beauty and adventure than you can shake a stick at. We are entirely volunteer-run and our goals are to raise money for local non-profit organizations and get people out in our beautiful public lands.

We have the very two last hats, both printed slightly askew, up for grabs. Free to good homes, can deliver in Kanab or y...

Thanks for running with us! After 5 wonderful years, we retired the race in 2025. We raised $11,316 for the Kane County Children's Justice Center, ate approximately 600 burritos, and smiled larger than the vert profile of the race.

Course maps and GPX tracks can still be found on our website, and you can reach our management via our webform.

Have a WILDLY BEAUTIFUL DAY!

Wildly beautiful.

Looking back on five amazing years!

Sunday Sponsor Shoutout!

Coffee, books, and outdoor gear, all in one place?? Sounds too good to be true, but at Willow Canyon Outdoor Company, you can have it all! Plus, owners Mel and Kieran are runners, so you know they're awesome.

We're grateful for Willow Canyon's support of our race and numerous other charitable efforts, such as supporting the Grand Canyon's recovery from the Dragon Bravo Fire.

SUPER Sponsor Shoutout Sunday!

Love Realty Utah has been our most steadfast supporter over our five year history, helping cover our overhead and providing swag for our coveted prize bags so that we can maximize our donation to the Kane County Children's Justice Center -CJC.

Moreover, Love Realty owner Karen has volunteered every year, providing runners with incredible free race pics (seen here!) and happy trail encouragement.

We're so grateful to Karen for her support!
