Triton 5K & Festival

Thank you for participating!

The 23rd annual Triton 5K & Festival was a huge success - thank you for your participation! More than 4,500 Tritons and friends were engaged through the Triton 5K around the globe. Over $170,000 was raised for scholarships through registrations and sponsorship support, bringing the total to over $4 million raised since 1996.

Your feedback was helpful! Based on your survey responses, we've already put new plans in place for the next Triton 5K. Look for waves based on pace time, an open, congestion-free course (no cross overs), and an on-site location where you'll be able to check your time and celebrate the winners!

We hope you'll join us in fall 2020 for the next Triton 5K. In the meantime, save the date for our Spirit Run coming up this October 19th, as part of Homecoming Weekend. More details to come!

Many thanks to our event sponsors and corporate teams for their generous support!

Join a Global 5K Race

Not in San Diego on April 7? No problem! Our regional alumni clubs and parent groups around the world are hosting Triton 5K activities in their respective cities. Take a look at the clubs hosting events below and join the thousands of Tritons on campus running in support of student scholarships and the Campaign for UC San Diego. As an added bonus, you’ll get to meet some other local Tritons and our amazing club leaders.

Race registration is $15. Proceeds support student scholarships and the Campaign for UC San Diego—our comprehensive fundraising effort to transform the student experience, our campus, and ultimately the way humanity approaches problems and develops solutions.
