The 5th annual MKTKD 5K event will be held Sunday August 10th at Webster park. Our last 4 #5KTKD events have raised over $20,000 for The Taekwondo Fund! This year’s event will have a 5k run/walk and a children’s 1 mile run/walk! Everyone is welcome to participate and go at their own pace. The events will be timed with medals awarded to all participants and special trophies for the winners of all divisions. There will also be a virtual option for anyone who is not able to make the event in person. Each event (5k, 1 mile kids run/walk, and virtual) will have standard package including a medal, and a deluxe option including the medal and event shirt. Scroll down for the sign up links and specific information on each event.
Important information about the kid's 1 mile run: This 1 mile course is meant to challenge our younger students ages 4-12 to see how quickly they can run 1 mile. Our tiny tiger students (kids aged 4-6 years old) are welcome to bring an adult guide (1 person over 13 years old) who will not be charged to guide them and motivate them on the course. The mile is competitive and timed and rankings will be broken into age level awards, but we do want our students to have fun and be safe so please remind your students of the following rules:
Please pass without pushing
Be aware of your surroundings, this is a grass course on a field.
Wear the appropriate sports gear. Sneakers only on the course
Here is the in person race route: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/4298806471

Something new and exciting is coming to Rochester NY on Sunday, September 20, 2026 as we will offer the inaugural Countdown to ONE! challenge. This unique challenge is for those dedicated runners that like to push themselves a bit more than others. As a Countdown to ONE participant you will run as many single miles as you can based on the time requirements for each. The course is a 1 mile loop. The start/finish for each mile is the same. All participants receive a finisher medal.
Here's how it works...
Each mile must be completed in less than the required time to advance to the next mile. If you fail to complete any of the miles in the allotted time you're out of the competition.
The first mile must be completed in 15 minutes or under, the second mile must be completed in 13 minutes or less, 3rd mile in 11 minutes or less, 4th mile in 10 minutes or less. These 4 miles make up the Bronze category. You must complete all 4 miles under the time cut offs to earn a bronze pin that can be attached to your medal.
The next wave would be the Silver category, 9 1/2, 9, 8 1/2 and 8 minute miles. You must complete all 8 miles under the time cut offs to earn the Silver pin to attach to your medal.
If you're still standing, it's onto the Gold category, 7 1/2, 7, 6 1/2 and 6 minute miles. You must complete all 12 miles under the time cut offs to earn the gold pin to attach to your medal.
If we have to go beyond this to get to our last person standing we will continue to drop each mile time requirement by 30 seconds.
If you finish any of the miles in under the required time to finish you are welcome to stretch, refuel and rest. There will be a one minute separation between each leg of this ultimate challenge.
As much as this is a competition to get to the last male and female standing, it's also a personal challenge for those not in the running to win it all. Set your goal, up your training and achieve your personal best!
All participants will receive a super cool and quite large finisher medal. Depending on the category you completed your last single mile successfully you will receive a pin to add to your finisher medal (Bronze, Silver, Gold).
Top Male and top Female finishers will receive a cash prize of $125 (each)

First Responders 5K
September 4, 2026 • 6:30pm
Webster Fireman's Field, 1193-1207 Ridge Rd, Webster, NY 14580
The First Responders 5K recognizes the strength, perseverance, and courage of Police Officers, Firefighters, EMTs, 911 Operators and their families in our local community. First Responders put their lives on the line for us every day as they face hardships that most of us will never know. The repetitive negative experience of stressful and potentially traumatic events that First Responders face on a daily basis leaves them particularly vulnerable to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. We hope that this event can raise awareness for PTSD in First Responders, and raise funds for FRST Agency, local charity that will provide support, awareness, assets, and services to First Responders seeking assistance in dealing with the effects of PTSD. Join us as we recognize the service and sacrifice of the people who dedicate their lives to protecting ours.
A portion of proceeds, as well as 100% of additional donations, will be donated to the FRST Agency.
There is no on-site registration. Please plan accordingly.

Welcome to the Crosswinds Run Series! Join us in Canandaigua for a late-summer tradition that’s been bringing runners, walkers, families and the community together for over 23 years. Formerly known as the Crosswinds 5K, the Crosswinds Run Series now offers multiple race-day options designed for all ages and abilities; whether you’re chasing a PR, enjoying a scenic walk or supporting a great local cause.
5K Run/Walk
Our iconic, USA Track & Field-certified course is as fun as it is challenging, perfect for walkers, first-time racers and competitive runners alike. You’ll enjoy an exhilarating downhill first mile through the City of Canandaigua, followed by the well-known climb up West Lake Road, and finish strong on the rolling hills of Ferris Hills.
10K Run
Introduced to the series last year and back by popular demand, the 10K builds on the tradition of the 5K’s hills with a longer, more demanding route for seasoned runners looking for a rewarding challenge. This USATF-certified course has a 90-minute time limit, after which roads will reopen to traffic.
Kids Fun Run
A half-mile course entirely on the event campus, perfect for young runners (preschool through 5th grade). It’s a safe, energetic, and memorable way for kids to experience race day. Every child receives:
Race t-shirt
Finisher’s medal
Access to a fun post-race snack table
More Than a Race
The Crosswinds Run Series is more than a finish line, it’s a movement with a mission. All proceeds benefit The Spot, a local organization providing free school supplies, clothing, food and shoes to students in need across the Canandaigua and Victor School districts. Thanks to runners, walkers, volunteers and business sponsors, last year’s event raised $13,400 for The Spot. With the continued growth of the Run Series, our goal is simple: make an even bigger impact in 2026.
Are You Ready to Commit?
Whether you’re here to tackle the hills, cheer from the sidelines, or support local kids in a meaningful way, the Crosswinds Run Series offers something for everyone.
Join us and be part of a tradition that truly gives back!
