The AF Canyon Run Against Cancer is a premier running race in the state of Utah with a singular mission: Raise money to help patients in our community who are fighting cancer.
The Intermountain Healthcare Cancer Centers, in partnership with the Intermountain Foundation at Utah Valley Hospital, host this annual event and donate 100 percent of the race fees and donations to this cause.
We encourage our runners to “Race in Honor” of loved ones who have fought, or are fighting the battle against cancer. Because of your involvement in the race and with additional donations, many families right here in your area have been helped on their path to becoming a SURVIVOR.
Course logistics: During the event, the westbound lane from the mouth of American Fork Canyon to Tibble Fork will be closed to motorized vehicles from 4 a.m. to 8 a.m. All runners are required to be out of the canyon by 8 a.m. (The canyon is the first seven miles of the course. This means you must be averaging at least a 16-minute mile pace to be out of the canyon by 8 a.m.) Any remaining runners will be picked up by the sag wagon and brought to the finish line. The entire course will close to runners at 10 a.m.
Because SR 92 is a narrow canyon road, traffic crews will close one lane of traffic until the mouth of American Fork Canyon. Whether in the canyon or anywhere else on the course, please run with extreme caution to ensure your safety. Please stay in the eastbound lane. Any runners who run outside the marked cones in the canyon may be disqualified. Participants run at their own risk.

The course was absolutely beautiful!! As the sun rose and you ran down the road it just kept getting prettier, turn by turn. The course is almost all down hill with aid station perfectly places every two miles. The race also had motivational signs for individual running for something great than fun. By far my favorite race! Great volunteers, great course and great cause!
