Course and event activities

The 5k starts in historic downtown Pasco, follows the train tracks south to the urban green trail, runs under the white bridge, reaches a turn-around, and returns along the same route. The 10k begins at the same location, crosses the cable bridge into the city of Kennewick, reaches the Clover Island lighthouse before turning around, and includes an additional mariachi band near the Lampson building. The event features cultural elements tied to Dia de los Muertos: mariachi music, face painting, sugar skull painting, lotería, a DJ, and a Ballet Folklórico performance. Participants are encouraged to wear Dia de los Muertos attire and decorate bibs that are designed in a papel picado style. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
