Start your holiday with one of Michiana’s longest-running traditions! The YMCA of Greater Michiana’s 44th Annual Thanksgiving Day Run in Niles, Michigan, draws more than 2,700 participants each year for a morning of fun, fitness, and community spirit. The event–starting from the Niles-Buchanan YMCA and winding through downtown Niles–features a 10K run, 5K run/walk, and a 1-mile fun walk, plus a virtual option for those celebrating from afar. Proceeds benefit the YMCA’s Annual Campaign, which helps fund swim lessons, youth programs, camp experiences, and wellness support for local families. Register by October 26 to be guaranteed the official 2025 race shirt.
