Runtastic DINO

The Runtastic DINO is a vibrant running event held in Vernal, Utah, known as Dinosaurland for its rich Jurassic dinosaur fossil sites. The race features a half marathon starting at the top of Dry Fork Canyon, offering a scenic, fast downhill course finishing at Uintah High School. Additionally, there is a 5K run beginning at Maeser Elementary School and ending at the same high school.

For younger participants aged 1 to 12, a half-mile kids' run is also available. The event encourages runners to dress up or aim for personal records, providing finisher medals, race shirts, decals, and temporary tattoos for all participants. It offers a family-friendly atmosphere celebrating the area's prehistoric heritage. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
