Race Info
Livestrong at the Y is a 5K and half marathon held each November in Peabody, Massachusetts, organized by the YMCA of Metro North and its Torigian Family YMCA branch. Both courses start and finish at Lt. Ross Memorial Park on Johnson Street. The race benefits Livestrong at the Y, a free 12-week program that helps adult cancer survivors rebuild strength and confidence after treatment. The half marathon returned in 2025 after several years on pause, running alongside the 5K that continued through the pandemic years.
