About the Holyoke Pride Rainbow Run 5K and 1 Mile Fun Walk
The course runs around Ashley Reservoir, so you spend most of the race near the water. The route is marked with arrows and cones through the turns, and there is a water stop about halfway through. It is a Pride-themed event, and the start area reflects that, with a local radio station providing music and a vendor serving frozen drinks.
Bib pickup opens well before the start inside the Holyoke Elks building, accessible from the back. Parking is in the Elks lot. From the gate, there is a short walk down to the start, so build that into your arrival time. Henna artists will be on site, and local organizations will have tables near the finish.

The Holyoke Pride Rainbow Run 5K and 1 Mile Fun Walk has been held every year since at least 2024. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 13, 2026.
