Get ready to ignite your summer running season at the inaugural Fenton Festival of Fitness, set to electrify Fenton, MI, on June 26-27, 2026. This exciting event offers a choice of distances perfect for all abilities: a thrilling 1-Mile race on Friday evening and a scenic 5K Run/Walk on Saturday morning. Both races promise a truly unique finish, culminating on the track of Ivan Williams Stadium (Fenton High School Football Field).

The 1-Mile race is designed to be fast, flat, and an electric experience, with runners finishing under the bright Friday night lights, cheered on by fans in the stands. The 5K follows an out-and-back course with a 2.5K split time, also concluding on the stadium's track for an unforgettable race-day experience. Typical race day conditions in late June bring highs around 81°F and lows near 58°F, with a relatively low 13% chance of precipitation, creating pleasant running weather. As part of a larger Festival of Fitness weekend, participants can also take on the "Double Challenge" by running both the 1-Mile and 5K for a special award.

Your registration includes chip timing, a custom Dri-Fit event shirt, a finisher medal, and free professional race photos, ensuring you'll cherish the memories of this vibrant community event. Proceeds from the Fenton Festival of Fitness benefit Fenton's first responders and important community programs such as Toys for Tots, allowing your participation to make a positive impact. Packet pick-up and parking are conveniently located at the Ivan Williams Stadium.
