Speedy Spud 5k

The Speedy Spud 5k is a fun and unique running event held in Rexburg, Idaho, featuring a 5K race and a kid-friendly "Mashed Potato Mile."

Participants enjoy a festive atmosphere with themed food stations offering fries and donuts along the route, culminating in a potato-themed medal. This event combines exercise with a playful potato theme, making it a memorable experience for runners of all ages.

It takes place annually in late September, promoting community engagement and healthy activity. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
