Alaska Salmon Runs

Website Registration

The Alaska Salmon Runs, held in Cordova, Alaska, are part of the Salmon Jam Festival, offering a weekend filled with running, music, and community events. The races take place along the scenic Copper River Highway, featuring views of rivers, mountains, and glaciers. Distances include the King Salmon Marathon, Sockeye Half Marathon, Coho 10K, Humpy 5K, and the Smolt One Mile Fun Run/Walk.

Most courses are point-to-point, with shuttles transporting runners to start lines and finishes in town at sea level on mostly flat terrain. The marathon combines gravel and paved surfaces. A post-race salmon BBQ adds a festive touch to the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
