From the Organizer

In our 14th year, this event is a great option for people of all abilities.  Come enjoy a family-friendly event with a small local food expo, mariachi dancers and other local flavor options as we celebrate our community here in Detroit's Mexicantown!  And kids can dress up as their favorite superhero and do the short, untimed run to be part of the festivities too!  Walk or run, we're happy to have you!  Proceeds go to support personal care and learning needs for our most vulnerable neighbors!

Registration fee increases on 7/18 and closes digitally on the Tuesday prior to the event.

Walk-in Registration on race day is also an option with an additional increase in pricing! Register sooner than later and save some cabbage!!

Race day registration and pick-up opens at 800am.
