Lace up for a meaningful morning at the MWCABC Run/Walk on October 4, 2026, in scenic Manhasset, NY. This popular 5K run/walk, celebrating its 28th year, kicks off from Mary Jane Davies Park, inviting participants to hit the pavement for a powerful cause. With typical race day conditions boasting comfortable highs around 72F and lows around 59F, and only a 12% chance of precipitation, the weather should be ideal for a spirited outing.
Beyond the physical challenge, the MWCABC Run/Walk is a vibrant community event dedicated to supporting the Manhasset Women's Coalition Against Breast Cancer (MWCABC). As an all-volunteer organization, MWCABC has dedicated nearly $4 million to innovative research, educational initiatives, and crucial support services for those affected by breast cancer. Adding to the festive atmosphere, the race often features a "Glow for a Cure" theme, encouraging runners and walkers to don their brightest neon gear, creating a visually exciting spectacle.
Participants can look forward to a well-organized event starting with check-in at 8:30 AM, followed by the 5K race start at 9:30 AM. Post-race, the celebration continues with refreshments, raffle opportunities, and awards for the top overall male and female finishers. Join fellow community members for a day of fitness, camaraderie, and impactful fundraising in the heart of Manhasset.
