Test your strength and speed in Campus Rec Pump & Run

February 2, 2026

A WVU student performs a bench press on a Smith machine at the Downtown Fitness Center. He is lying on a slightly inclined bench, wearing a red T-shirt, navy shorts and a black cap, pressing a barbell loaded with 45-pound plates. Other students and free weights are visible in the background of the gym.

Join WVU Campus Rec for the first-ever Pump and Run on Saturday, February 28 at the Downtown Fitness Center.

Participants will complete a max-effort bench press followed by a 5K treadmill run, with reps helping knock time off your run. Compete in timed waves from 8-11:30 a.m., cheer on fellow Mountaineers, and stick around as top male and female finishers are crowned-plus, all participants receive a free shaker bottle. Event is open to students, Campus Rec members, and the community.
