From the Organizer
The Missouri River Runners' Pump N' Run event is back for 2026!
How does it work?
Participants bench press a percentage of their body weight based on their Age/Gender demographic, and for each successful rep completed your 5K time will be reduced by 1 full minute! Check out the 'Event Info' tab for demographic breakdown.
NOTE: Bench press MUST be done prior to race day!
Don't want to pump but still want to run? No problem! A "Traditional 5K" race option is also available!
Deadline to be guaranteed a shirt is July 17th
