The Bursting Bubble 5K Walk and Run invites participants to a profoundly meaningful event on Sunday, May 3, 2026, in Everett, Washington. This unique 5K, held at 400 Smith Island Road within the picturesque Langus Riverfront Park, offers a serene and reflective experience for both runners and walkers. The course navigates scenic dirt trails, which may present some rocky areas and tree roots, providing a connection with nature. While extensive elevation details are not widely documented, riverfront park settings are typically flatter and accessible. Runners can anticipate comfortable conditions, as typical race day weather in early May brings highs around 60°F and lows around 45°F, with a modest 12% chance of precipitation.
More than just a race, the Bursting Bubble 5K is a heartfelt gathering organized by Chasing the Rainbows, dedicated to supporting and honoring those affected by infertility, pregnancy loss, stillbirth, or infant loss. The event's atmosphere is rich with community and remembrance, featuring live entertainment, local vendors, and a poignant "Wall to Remember" to honor babies gone too soon. Participants will find themselves embraced by an uplifting spirit, with every step and "bursting bubble" symbolizing the unique journey of grief, enduring love, and precious memories. The event begins at 9 AM, with packet pickup available 30 minutes prior, and day-of registration opening at 7:30 AM. Strollers and leashed dogs are welcome, and free parking is available at Langus Riverfront Park.
Your participation in the Bursting Bubble 5K directly contributes to Chasing the Rainbows' vital mission, funding 11 free, trauma-informed services that provide daily care and support to grieving families. Join this powerful event to honor, remember, and help ensure no one faces their grief alone.
