  The finish line is just the beginning! After the race, stick around to enjoy the best of Detroit’s riverfront district:

  Your Impact: Turning Miles into Milestones

  When you participate, you aren’t just finishing a race—you’re helping neighbors in Detroit, Hamtramck, and Highland Park cross the finish line into stable housing.

  Housing is the first step, but stability is the journey: Your contribution ensures no one has to walk that path alone. Funds raised provide more than just a roof; they provide the foundation for a fresh start. Your support directly funds:

  • Essential Documentation: Obtaining IDs, Social Security cards, and birth certificates.

  • Move-in Costs: Covering fees and deposits that often stand in the way of a new home.

  • Home & Life Essentials

  • Household Necessities: Providing items to turn a house into a home.

  • Daily Support: Funding transportation passes and school supplies.

  • Long-Term Stability: Wraparound Services: We provide counseling and support services to ensure lasting independence.

  Wurst Kilometer

  3409 Cass Ave, Detroit, Michigan, 48201, United States

  Distance: 7.2 km from Windsor

  Sun, Aug 02, 2026 at 1:30 PM

  The Wurst Kilometer was dreamed up after one too many at Meantime in Detroit. It’s one brat, one mliko and one highly questionable kilometer. Its the kind of thing that shouldn’t exist but now that it does, you know you want to try it. Just like its daddy race, all proceeds after cost will be donated to Rebel Dogs Detroit. Unlike its daddy, there are no laps involved. You know you want to give it a shot. Also, it is the wurst kilometer, so it’s happening mid-afternoon in August.

  Registration includes a race day tank and sticker, brat and mliko.
