El Día de Los Muertos or The Day of the Dead is a holiday in which people are able
to honor their loved ones who have passed on before them. It is a way to connect
with those loved ones and to celebrate their lives. It is celebrated in Mexico as
well as other Hispanic cultures and allows a connection between the living and
the dead.
The YMCA Día de Los Muertos 5K Run will be a fun way for us to honor our loved
ones who have passed on before us. It will include an Ofrenda with candles to
light for the loved ones we are running to honor. There will also be a board in
which pictures of loved ones can be placed as well. It will allow us to celebrate
those that have gone before us in a fun, unique and active way.
There will be prizes for top finishers as well as best costume, so dress to impress!
There will also be some fun activities for the kids at the end of the race as well!
Proceeds will go to the YMCA to help support their after-school activities, summer
programs as well as sports programs for our youth.
Please come and join us for the First YMCA Día De Los Muertos 5k on Saturday,
November 2nd, 10am at The Los Alamos Cooperative Market, so that we may Run
to Remember.
