Lace up your shoes for the Race to the Future 5K, returning on May 9, 2026, in the charming Wildlight community of Yulee, FL. This event offers both a 5K and a 1-Mile distance, making it perfect for runners of all ages and experience levels. As the 3rd annual fundraiser hosted by the Rotary Club of Greater Nassau, every stride you take supports a vital cause: advancing education for Nassau County students, including initiatives for homeless students, winter break book programs, and trade school scholarships.

Participants can expect a road course winding through the scenic Wildlight community. Typical race day conditions in early May feature comfortable lows around 62F, rising to highs near 85F, with only a 12% chance of precipitation, providing generally pleasant running weather. All 5K finishers will proudly earn a medal, and younger participants (12 and under) in the 1-Mile race will also receive a finisher's medal and a race shirt. Packet pickup will be conveniently held at the Wildlight YMCA. Join approximately 100-500 fellow runners for a community-focused event that makes a tangible difference in local education.
