Event Overview
The CHASS 5k Run/Walk & Kid's Superhero Race takes place in Detroit's Mexicantown neighborhood. Now in its 13th year, this community event is hosted at the Community Health & Social Services (CHASS) Center on West Fort Street. The gathering serves as a fundraiser to support personal care and learning needs for local residents.
Participants can choose from the following event options:
- 5k Run/Walk
- Kids Superhero Run
The 5k event is open to participants of various abilities and can be completed by either running or walking. The Kids Superhero Run is a short, untimed event where children are encouraged to dress up in superhero costumes to participate in the festivities.
Beyond the races, the event features a family-friendly atmosphere with a variety of cultural and local attractions. This includes a small food expo showcasing local food options and performances by mariachi dancers. Race day registration and packet pick-up are available on-site at the CHASS Center. Registration fees follow a tiered pricing structure, with increases occurring in mid-July and on the day of the event. Digital registration typically closes on the Tuesday prior to the race.
