🏅 Your Finisher Medal

Every participant will earn a bold and meaningful medal, featuring the message:


“I Do Not Like Cancer Here or There.
I Do Not Like Cancer Anywhere.”

Surrounded by colorful cancer awareness ribbons and a powerful message of unity and defiance, this medal honors the fighters, survivors, caregivers, and loved ones we run for.


💛 Why We Run
  • To support those currently battling

What is a Virtual Race?

A virtual race is a race that can be run (or walked) from any location you choose. You can run, jog, or walk on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill, at the gym or on the track (or even at another race). You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself. Running and walking on your own, or with friends! And your medal will be shipped directly to you. Complete a virtual 5Ks, 10K, half marathon and more!

Each race benefits a difference charity

For each of our virtual races, we choose a charity to donate a portion of each registration to. We’ve already raised more than $1,00,000 for charities from our many different virtual races! Our goal is to continue to help different charities around the world.
