Since its founding in 1996 by former UC San Diego Chancellor Robert C. Dynes, the Triton 5K (formerly the Chancellor's Challenge 5K Run/Walk for Scholars) has raised more than $4 million in undergraduate scholarship support, benefiting more than 1,000 motivated and ambitious students. Now, in its 24th year, the Triton 5K continues to expand scholarships, ensuring that learning is accessible and affordable for all.

Enhancing the student experience is a key priority of the Campaign for UC San Diego, our comprehensive fundraising effort to empower the next generation of innovators to blaze a new path toward revolutionary ideas, unexpected answers, lifesaving discoveries and planet-changing impact.

Wherever you are in the world, it’s now easier than ever to make a difference in the lives of our students. Join in on the Virtual Triton 5K fun!

The first 1,000 to register will also receive a complimentary finisher medal, sponsored by UC San Diego Recreation.
