Dia De Muertos 5 K

Dia De Muertos 5 K is held in Clovis, California, on October 25, 2026, with a 5K run/walk at 9:00 a.m. and a 2-mile walk two minutes later at 9:02 a.m. Kids' races are part of the program, and the day leans into the holiday with altar decorating, a catrina photo session, a costume contest, music and entertainment. Entrants get distinctive medals, there are age-group awards, and hoodies, tacos, hot chocolate and pan dulce round out the offering.

The 5K is the racing option and the 2-mile walk is there for anyone who would rather stroll. Because the two go off within two minutes of each other, runners should position themselves toward the front at the start. Nothing about the day demands a serious build; a month of regular running will have you finishing the 5K comfortably.
