Be part of something bigger than just a walk or run — join a movement that’s saving lives in East Tennessee.

Thanks to over $8 million raised, medically underserved neighbors have received life-saving screenings and treatment through the Thompson Cancer Survival Center.
️ Every dollar stays local. Every stride brings us closer to beating cancer in our own backyard.
Whether you're lacing up your shoes or cheering from the sidelines, your participation powers hope for patients and families who need it most. Let’s race toward a future free from cancer — one step at a time.
