12 Days of Christmas giveaways starts today!

TODAY starts the 1st Day of our 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS Giveaways! 🎄🎅🏼🌟

The elves at Runtastic HQ have been busy working on our 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways that you will surely be jolly about!

Each morning from December 12 through December 23, you can enter to win entries into each one of our 2026 races, a Trilogy Package (3 - 2026 Half Marathons), or an entry into our inaugural Utah City race April 11, 2026! Plus, you’ll also win some serious SWAG from our participating sponsors!

The contest will run each day until midnight and the winner(s) will be announced the following morning, along with the next day’s giveaways!

To participate in the 12 Days of Christmas contest, you’ll need to FOLLOW our Runtastic Events accounts on Facebook or Instagram (or both if you want double chances to win), FOLLOW that day’s participating sponsor’s account, and comment with that day’s contest instructions.

Check back here soon for our first giveaway Friday morning! ☀️

From the speedy spiders to the costumed ghouls… you flew down Provo Canyon, braved Spook Alley and the Haunted Forest, and crossed that giant pumpkin finish line. You proved why this crew owns Halloween. 👻

Huge thanks to every runner, sponsor, and volunteer who made PROVO HAUNTED one wicked weekend.

Rest up, refuel, and flex that spider medal — you’ve earned every bite of candy and every mile of recovery. 🍬

Happy Halloween! 👻🧡 And keep your eyes peeled… 2026 HAUNTED dates will be creeping up soon. 👀

Every bib represents a paid runner — one bus seat, one spider medal, and one race-day experience they have paid for.

Copying a bib or banditing the course doesn’t just break the rules — it takes from someone who registered, trained, and paid to be there.

We strive to keep the running community fair, safe, and fun for everyone.

If you’re caught running with a fake bib, you will be banned from future Runtastic races for a minimum of one year.

Register for the race to claim your medal. Do it the right way.

Attention all ghosts, goblins, and speed demons! 🕷️

Our old Provo HAUNTED start area was bursting at the seams — too many bodies, not enough breathing room (and that’s before the costumes).

So this year, we’re starting at Big Spring Park for a safer, smoother, and more spacious kickoff — and stay within the U.S. Forest Service safety requirements.

You’ll tackle a short uphill + out-and-back before diving into the fast canyon miles you love.

More room to run. More room to haunt. Less room for chaos. 👻
