Michigan Men's Health Foundation's annual Run for the Ribbon 5K takes place Father’s Day, Sunday, June 21, 2026 at 8 a.m. at the Detroit Zoo to support prostate cancer survivors and those who love them. Participants can participate in the 5K run/walk loop or a 1 Mile Stroll inside the zoo. All participants will receive a race shirt, medal, and complimentary entry to the Detroit Zoo; overall and age group awards will be given. What a great way to spend Father's Day!
Prostate cancer survivors receive a special gift at the Michigan Men's Health Foundation tent. Visit the Celebration Signs & More tab to dedicate a sign and learn about the other ways you can honor the prostate cancer hero in your life.
Registrants are encouraged bring a team and build a personal fundraising page asking friends and family members to donate when they sign up for the event. Registrants can upload photos, a personal story and set up team or personal fundraising goals. Each secure team page or personal page will have its own custom URL.
Age Based Discounts - We ask that all participants are registered, including stroller entries, but offer age-based discounts for both the run and the stroll. Age based discounts are available for children 0-2 and 3-13. All stroller entries receive a t-shirt, medal, and zoo entry with their race bib.
Parking is available in the Zoo parking structure or the surface lot to the left of the main entrance to the Zoo.
*Please note that according to Zoo regulations, dogs are not allowed at this race*
