From the Organizer
Join us this Memorial Day for the Foothills Strong Run(formerly Fiesta Days Run), a community-powered event hosted by the YMCA of the Foothills on Monday, May 25, 2026. This meaningful day of movement and remembrance brings neighbors, families, and fitness enthusiasts together to honor resilience while supporting local families recovering from the Eaton Fire.
Participants of all ages and abilities can take part in one of four unique events: the Foothills Fastest 1 Mile, Dog/Human 1 Mile, 5K Walk/Run, and the Family 1 Mile Fun Run. Whether you’re racing for a personal best, walking with friends, or running alongside your four-legged companion, there’s a place for everyone at the starting line. All events meet at Olberz Park in La Canada Flintridge.
Presented by USC Verdugo Hills Hospital in partnership with the City of La Cañada Flintridge, this event goes beyond the finish line. Funds raised will provide YMCA memberships through 2026 for families impacted by the Eaton Fire — ensuring access to wellness programs, youth activities, supportive services, and a strong sense of community connection.
Run, walk, and rally together — because our community is strongest when we move forward together.
