Lace up for a vibrant Cinco de Mayo celebration at the 5inco De Miles, taking place on Saturday, May 2, 2026, in the picturesque Chula Vista Bayfront. This festive event, designed to welcome runners of all ages and abilities, offers a perfect blend of fitness, culture, and community spirit with distances of a 5K and a 1 Mile run.
The course, set along scenic Bayside Park, provides an ideal, flat route for those chasing personal bests or families looking to enjoy an active holiday together. Expect typical race day conditions with highs around 69F and lows around 57F, and only a 2% chance of precipitation, ensuring pleasant weather for your run.
