The Trumansburg May Day 5K, set for Saturday, May 30, 2026, invites runners and walkers to experience a vibrant community event in the charming village of Trumansburg, NY. This 5K run/walk, along with a 1-Mile Kids Fun Run, begins and ends on the Trumansburg Central School campus, winding through the heart of the village. The USATF certified course is celebrated for being mostly flat with only moderate elevation changes, making it an ideal route for runners of all abilities—from families seeking a fun outing to seasoned athletes chasing a new personal record. Typical race day conditions in late May offer pleasant highs around 71F and lows near 48F, with only a 15% chance of precipitation, creating a comfortable environment for your race.
This beloved community tradition, now in its 13th year, highlights fitness and family while making a significant impact. Proceeds directly benefit the Trumansburg Parent Teacher Organizations (PTO) and the Trumansburg Education Foundation (TEF), supporting local students and teachers. The race also proudly hosts the Trumansburg Girls on the Run Team as they triumphantly conclude their season in their hometown. Participants can expect a well-supported course with one water stop located about halfway through on Pennsylvania Ave, though bringing personal hydration is encouraged.
The Trumansburg May Day 5K is more than just a race; it's a festive gathering that fosters community spirit and promotes active living. Whether you're aiming for a fast finish or enjoying a leisurely walk, this welcoming event promises a rewarding experience through scenic village streets, culminating back on the school campus near the playground tent. Join in this celebration of health, education, and community on May 30, 2026.
