Experience an unforgettable Alaskan running tradition where you'll tackle a 10K under the midnight sun—the race kicks off at 10:00 PM nearest the summer solstice from the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus, takes you through 6.2 miles of neighborhood streets lined with supportive crowds, and finishes at Pioneer Park for post-race festivities that last well into the night. Whether you're a competitive runner gunning for the elite corral or a creative spirit ready to rock a costume, this chip-timed event welcomes everyone and directs your entry fees toward the Fairbanks Resource Agency and the Paula Kothe Scholarship Award, which awards $6,000 annually to deserving local student athletes.
