About the Livestrong at the Y 5K & Half Marathon
The race starts and finishes at Lt. Ross Memorial Park, a road course that works for both shorter and longer distances. It benefits a program that supports cancer survivors through exercise and recovery, so the atmosphere at the start tends to feel purposeful. There are refreshments waiting after you finish.
Packet pickup is available the evening before at the Torigian Family YMCA, with race-morning pickup opening well before the start. There is no day-of registration, so you need to be signed up in advance. The course is foot traffic only, no strollers or dogs.

The Livestrong at the Y 5K & Half Marathon has been held every year since at least 2021. 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 Oct 25, 2026.
