Since 2008, the Guam Humanities Council has presented the Y Tinaotao 5K Run. This historically themed run follows a course in Hagåtña, taking runners to various sites from different periods of Guam's past. The goal of the Y Tinaotao 5K is to raise community awareness and greater accessibility to the Council’s diverse humanities programs, to highlight our island’s rich history and to encourage an active lifestyle and environmental appreciation among our residents.  Runners and walkers are treated to cultural presentations along the route while identifying significant sites highlighted on the course and in an interpretive brochure on the history of our island’s capital. The course kicks off at the Dulce Nombre de Maria Agana Cathedral-Basilica, and ends at the Plaza de Espana in Hagåtña with post race festivities.
