Greater Beverly YMCA Rhino Run 10K

Start and finish at Lynch Park, Beverly

The Greater Beverly YMCA Rhino 10K was born from the Rhino Relay established by the Rhino Run Club at Old Planters Brewing located in downtown Beverly, MA. Soon after the Rhino Run Club was created, the COVID-9 pandemic hit leaving the runners unable to get together in person. Feeling a bit defeated and helpless during this time, the Rhinos decided to create a virtual relay event to support Beverly Hospital by raising funds for much needed PPE supplies. The community response was so great that the Rhino Relay continued for two more years following the initial race. In the past three years, the relay generated more than $30,000 for local and international causes. Now that we’ve all safely shifted back to in-person events the YMCA has joined forces with the Rhino Club and Old Planters Brewing to carry the baton for a live race event. In the spirit of the relay, this 10K race can be run by a single person or as a two person relay (5K each). All profits from this event will go directly to the YMCA to enrich the Beverly community. We hope to see you out on the racecourse on April 30th, horns up!

In 2022 our Ys reinvested $4.3M to ensure 4,000 families and individuals in our communities had access to programming, services and resources they need through financial assistance and scholarships.

You believe in our mission to welcome all. In 2023 your participation in our road races will continue to allow our Y to say yes to those who need us most. Your trust in the Y inspires us to work tirelessly every day.
