Sponsors

We believe in the power that running, movement, and community hold . . .

. . . in transforming lives, inspiring connections, and building resilience.

Through Yakima Mile, we hope to cultivate joy and active lives through a uniquely exciting event–whether you participate or cheer along kids, dogs, families, or elite runners. Yakima Mile's beneficiary is YWCA Yakima–supporting their programs and services for survivors of Domestic Violence. When Yakima is better, we are all better.

By becoming a sponsor, you contribute to a healthier, stronger community and help sustain life-changing support for those in need.

Please direct any questions about sponsorship and partnership opportunities to meg@yakimamile.org

To every volunteer, supporter, and team member who makes the Yakima Mile a reality—thank you. From the dedicated volunteers who lend their time, to the Yakima Police Department and city staff who keep our runners safe, your commitment brings this race to life. Here’s to you—our community, our champions, and our family.

Together, we make every mile count.

At the end, the elites took to the road and, as usual, ran some other-worldly times.

The female winner came within less than a second from the Washington State mile record and seven
men ran under 4:00 – whether its modern training, super-shoes, or both, the four minute mile just
doesn’t seem to be the barrier it used to be.

A super fun night; I’d do this run again in a minute.
