YMCA Livestrong 5K Walk/Run - 30th Annual
The event is a 5K run or fun walk held on Sunday April 19, 2026, at Roosevelt Park in Edison, New Jersey, with the meeting location listed as Lakeview School. It is presented as a memorial event and raises funds for the Livestrong at the YMCA program, which is offered at no cost to cancer survivors to support recovery, strength building and confidence.
Activities on race day include registration with music, a Zumba warmup and pre-race snacks, and social time for friends, family and teammates. Runners start first, followed by walkers. Awards are presented immediately after the race and include finisher medals for the top three overall in male, female and binary categories, plus top-three awards for male and female competitors in 10-year age groups beginning at ages 1-9 and continuing through 70 and older.
The entry listing notes a registration fee tier with a standard price and a reduced price for children, and it indicates that pricing changes at a specified date before the event. The event is open to a wide age range and includes individual and team awards. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
