8th Annual Yakima Mile -- Saturday, June 5, 2027
The course follows a one-mile, gradual downhill stretch of Yakima Ave. finishing in the shadows of Yakima’s historic Larson Building. Yakima Mile is open to kids, families, dogs, veterans, elite runners, and all those who want to run their fastest mile…. EVER (or walk, or jog... as you like).
The Elite Mile races bring together many of the fastest milers from around the nation in hopes of breaking the Fastest Mile in Washington – yet again – and taking home some big cash prizes.
Competitive races are stacked across the board with cash prizes – the total purse for 2027 is over $60,000. Including $23,000 across the TOP 7 groups by number of finishers, as well as a group drawn at random for $3,000. More details on our website.
