Lace up for a meaningful journey at the Crossroads Community Care 5K, set to take place on Saturday, May 9, 2026, in the welcoming community of South Lyon, MI. This popular 5K run/walk is celebrated for its "fast and flat" road course that winds through the scenic streets of South Lyon, offering an enjoyable experience for participants of all abilities. Typical race day conditions in early May often bring pleasant highs around 70°F and comfortable lows around 45°F, with a relatively low 19% chance of precipitation, creating ideal running weather.

What truly distinguishes the Crossroads Community Care 5K is its profound commitment to local impact. This family-friendly event serves as a vital fundraiser, with all proceeds directly benefiting three deserving South Lyon charities: Active Faith Community Services (providing essential food bank and clothing closet services), Capernaum Health Care, and Renewed Hope Counseling Center. Participants can take pride in knowing their strides contribute directly to strengthening the community.

Runners can anticipate a rewarding experience, as every finisher receives a commemorative medal and a race shirt. Awards are presented to the Overall Male and Female winners, along with the top three finishers across various age categories. With a race size typically ranging from 100 to 500 participants, the Crossroads Community Care 5K promises a supportive and engaging atmosphere for both seasoned runners and those new to the racing scene. The event kicks off at 9:00 AM EDT, with the main location for the 5K being South Lyon, MI 48178 US.
