Run for a Reason: Your Support Makes the Difference

Run for a reason. The Y is dedicated to ensuring everyone has access to our programming and services, from life-saving swim safety to youth development and childcare. Your registration supports this essential mission, ensuring we can continue to help those in our community who need the Y most.

This year, your impact goes even further. We’re so excited you’ll be joining us for the 2026 Glen T. MacLeod Cape Ann YMCA St. Peter's Fiesta 5K Road Race. By participating, you’re not just running a race—you’re strengthening the foundation of Gloucester. Your commitment ensures that vital programs remain accessible to every neighbor, family, and child in our community.

Get your running shoes ready! Looking for the ultimate way to participate in Gloucester’s annual St. Peter’s Festival celebration? This family-friendly course runs from Stage Fort Park right into the heart of the celebration. With fans lining the streets to cheer you on and a finish line right at the Fiesta Carnival, it’s more than a race—it’s a chance to celebrate our community and run for a life-changing mission. We can’t wait to see you at the starting line!
