Overview

Get ready for a legendary encounter with Freddie, the lovable Yeti, at the Running From Yeti event in Kansas City, MO.

Participants can run, walk, jog, or even cartwheel their way through the 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon along a moderately hilly circular off-road route. Finishers will earn a cozy hoodie and choose from a variety of bonus swag such as a custom insulated water bottle and running hat.

Embrace the chilly spirit by wearing white to match Freddie and dance to the beats of Yeti music. The post-race celebration will feature food, drinks, and family-friendly interactions with Freddie.

In 2023, this event was voted the 3rd Best 5K in North America.
