Taco Fun Run- Bakersfield 2026

Taco Fun Run- Bakersfield is a morning taco-themed race at Yokuts Park, Bakersfield, located at 4200 Empire Dr. The main event is a 6K run or walk (approximately 3.72 miles), alongside a 2-mile speed walk and children's races. Children begin first, shortly before the 6K and 2-mile events. Bib pickup is available on race day within the park before the races commence. The 6K is the competitive race: awards are given to the top five men and women, and the top three runners in each age division, ranging from under 19 to 60-plus, also receive awards. The 2-mile walk is more relaxed, without age-group or top-finisher awards. The event embraces its theme with tacos, agua fresca, music, a distinct finisher medal, and an additional Reyes Running Series medal, appealing to families and recreational runners as well as those seeking to place.
