About this race
The streets of Talent are calling, and they want YOU.
Every year, the Day of the Dead Race fills our town with runners, walkers, families, and friends of every age, every background, and every pace. It’s more than a race. It’s a celebration of Latino culture, of life, and of the people we carry with us.
Expect music that moves your feet, food that feeds your soul, dancing that spills into the streets, and art that stops you in your tracks. Paint your face, wear your flowers, and bring someone with you in spirit.
Come run. Come walk. Come belong.
When we share our culture, we build more than community. We build understanding, joy, and a tradition worth showing up for year after year.
Lace up. ¡Vamos!
