Thank You, Salt Lake City!

The 2nd Annual Unified 5K at Liberty Park was a wonderful celebration of inclusion and community. Whether you ran, walked, rolled, volunteered, sponsored, or cheered, you helped make this day truly special. We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our sponsors and vendors. Without you, our race in Salt Lake City would not have happened.

We can’t wait to see you at the starting line in 2027!

So Every Body Can Move

Thanks to our partnership with Less Leg More Heart and the support of Mobility Prosthetics, we were able to donate a running blade to a woman in SLC. 

We also had a strong presence from the Utah chapter of So Every BODY Can Move – a national initiative fighting to require insurance coverage for activity-specific prosthetics that insurers routinely deny as “not medically necessary.” Launched in 2022 by leading O&P and disability advocacy organizations, the movement works state by state to pass legislation mandating coverage, with five states already signed into law and a bold goal of reaching 28 states by the 2028 Paralympics. We’re proud to support their work; because everyone deserves the right to move.

Thank you to our Salt Lake City Race Directors!

Zachary Josie

Race Director
Born with Ellis Van Creveld Syndrome, a rare form of dwarfism, Zachary Josie never saw himself as an athlete. That changed in his 20s when a college spin class sparked a passion for endurance sports. He has since become a 15-time IRONMAN 70.3 finisher and a 2-time full-distance IRONMAN. Endurance sports have made him proud of his body and shown him how privileged he is to push it to its fullest potential. Now, Zachary competes to push his limits, redefine possibilities, and inspire others to embrace their own potential.
