5k Run Walk

Join us for the Western Family YMCA's Fourth Annual Great Human Race 5K at 10am, followed by our International Food Festival at 11am, in partnership with the West Wilmington Seventh Day Adventist Church. This event is a celebration of what unites us as a community. Plus, enjoy a variety of foods from around the world, and entertainment for the entire family including special global performances, moon bounce, and more!

5k Participants may enter the International Food Festival for free. If you are planning to only attend the International Food Festival, we are accepting cash only at the event. No early registration required. Adults: $10, Children under 18: $5.

All proceeds from the Great Human Race 5k will be donated to the Annual Campaign for the Western Family YMCA. The YMCA of Delaware is committed to strengthening local citizens through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. As one of the largest non-profit organizations in the state, we are dedicated to serving everyone – regardless of age, income or background. With support from our community, we work every day to help ensure that people from all walks of life can enjoy the Y, especially those who would not be able to experience what we offer without financial support. With your participation, we have the power to transform lives!

    Join Mother, Baby & Beyond for our 3rd Annual 'Say Her Name' 5K & Family Fun Day as we come together to honor mothers we've lost to preventable maternal deaths while celebrating life, resilience, and hope.`

    Maternal deaths are rising in the U.S., and more than 80% are preventable. This community-centered event is dedicated to addressing maternal health disparities through education, advocacy, and connection to community resources and support. Together, we honor the lives of mothers lost, amplify their stories, and support ongoing efforts to strengthen women's health initiatives focused on improving outcomes for mothers and babies.

    This family-friendly event creates space to walk in solidarity and advocate for healthier futures for all mothers and babies. Whether you run, walk, or cheer, your participation sends a powerful message.

    Walk with us. Learn with us. Advocate with us.
