Get ready to embrace summer at the Glens Falls Hospital Aloha Family 5K and 1 Mile Fun Walk, a vibrant and family-friendly event taking place on Saturday, May 30, 2026, in scenic Glens Falls, NY. Kicking off from Haviland Cove Park Pavilion, this festive race invites participants of all ages to run or walk a picturesque, off-street course. You'll journey along the beautiful and historic Feeder Canal, with the return route following the newly developed Pruyn Island trail along the majestic Hudson River. The course is largely flat and level, combining paved roads and hard-packed gravel, with some grassy sections, making it accessible for a variety of fitness levels. Expect typical race day conditions with highs around 73F and lows around 49F, and only a 17% chance of precipitation, providing ideal weather for a memorable outing.

This chip-timed 5K and fun 1-mile walk are more than just a race; they're a celebration with a Hawaiian twist! Participants are encouraged to don their best aloha attire, with beach tunes inspiring you along the way. Beyond the enjoyment of the run, your participation supports Amanda's House at Glens Falls Hospital, a vital resource offering a temporary home for patients and their families traveling for treatment. Post-race, the festivities continue with an awards celebration, lively music, engaging kids' activities, and plenty of photo opportunities.

The Glens Falls Hospital Aloha Family 5K promises an unforgettable experience for everyone. All children 12 and under will receive a participation medal, while the top three male and female 5K finishers will be recognized with awards. Jogging strollers are welcome, though participants are asked to position themselves at the back of the race for safety. With its scenic course, supportive atmosphere, and meaningful cause, this event is the perfect way to welcome summer and enjoy a day of activity with the community.
