Get ready for an exciting day of fun and fitness at the Gateway to Yosemite 5K/10K, taking place on Sunday, September 21, 2025, in the picturesque city of Merced, California! The race kicks off at the beautiful Fahrens Park Disc Golf Course, located at 3400 San Lorenzo Way. This vibrant locale not only offers amazing trails that wind through the scenic disc golf course and dog park but also provides a fantastic atmosphere for spectators and participants alike.

This year, the event will feature both a 5K and a 10K race, with the 10K turnaround point at General Vang Park. As you lace up your running shoes, you'll be supporting a wonderful cause—the development of the Aletha June All-Inclusive Playground at General Vang Pao Park. This playground will be designed to accommodate children of all abilities, featuring inclusive swings, slides, and more, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the joy of play. Participants aged 13 and younger must be accompanied by an adult, making this a perfect family-friendly event. Join us for a day of community spirit, healthy competition, and support for a great initiative!
