The Autumn Milestone 5K Run/Walk is set to enchant runners on November 8, 2026, in Newark, Delaware. The race departs from Green Meadow Park, situated at the heart of the city's residential area and just a stone’s throw away from Main Street's bustling charm and historic landmarks like the New Castle County Courthouse. Race morning will usher in crisp autumn breezes that invigorate runners as they prepare for their journey through scenic trails. Temperatures are expected to range between 4°C and 13°C, creating an ideal climate for a brisk run or walk. The course weaves through Green Meadow Park, offering picturesque views of expansive fields and the historic walking bridge over the creek. This route ensures runners enjoy both natural beauty and well-defined paths that enhance their experience. Upon completing your 5K journey near the park entrance, you'll find yourself in an atmosphere brimming with community support for Kaden Dennis and The Epilepsy Foundation of Delaware. Competitive walkers have a dedicated path running parallel to the main course, ensuring inclusivity among all participants. Along the way, runners will encounter strategic aid stations every kilometer where water and energy gels are available to keep you fueled. Weather conditions on race day will feel like 6.8°C with light winds of around 12 km/h, providing a comfortable temperature range for your run or walk. The humidity levels at 65% should not present significant challenges, though there is a slight chance of minor showers with an expected rainfall of just 2 mm. Trail conditions will remain firm enough to handle any brief precipitation. Participants can collect their bibs one hour before the event starts on race morning at Green Meadow Park, weather permitting; valid ID is required for age verification upon arrival. Registration opens now at https://raceroster.com/events/2026/130658/walking-beside-kaden-5k-runwalk with fees set at $28.38, offering options for competitive walkers and guest passes. For first-timers or newcomers, ensure you're dressed in suitable running shoes and comfortable clothing appropriate for cool autumn mornings to make the most of your experience. Join us as we celebrate community support and raise funds and awareness for epilepsy through this engaging 5K run/walk.
