Join Chicago's race to beat pediatric cancer.
The Lurie Children’s Race Against Cancer (formerly Run for Gus) is for families navigating treatment. For survivors finding strength. For siblings who’ve been there every step of the way. For nurses, doctors and researchers who give their all. And for everyone who has ever sat in a hospital room wishing they could do more.
Together, at the Race Against Cancer, we can push cancer back and move breakthroughs forward. And here’s the truth: we are closer than ever.
What to Expect
• Timed 5K run in Diversey Harbor
• 1-mile walk for all ages and abilities
• The Run for Gus Kids Dash for our youngest champions
• Moments of recognition and reflection
• A powerful post-race celebration filled with community, connection and hope
