From the Organizer
The Run for Precious Hearts is a community 1K and 5K created to honor loved ones affected by Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) and to raise awareness for this rare and often misunderstood disease. This event is held in memory of Carli Smyth, who passed away at just 26 years old from PAH. Carli and Matt met at Pleasant Grove High School, built their lives in this city, and she is buried here — making Pleasant Grove a meaningful place for this race to come to life.
This family-friendly event welcomes runners, walkers, kids, and supporters of all ages and abilities. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or simply walking in solidarity, everyone is invited to take part in a morning of remembrance, connection, and community.
All net proceeds will support PAH awareness, patient advocacy, and research aimed at earlier diagnosis and better treatments for those living with pulmonary hypertension.
