About the Event
Join Honorary Race Chair and marathon legend Bill Rodgers to run or walk a 5K and raise funds to benefit the Melanoma Foundation of New England's free education, prevention and support programs. Melanoma is a deadly, yet highly preventable form of skin cancer. It is the 2nd most common cancer in teens and young adults. Join us at the starting line in the fight against melanoma.
Early detection of melanoma saves lives! Stop by the Dana-Farber/Brigham & Women's BLUM Family Resource Van to get a free skin cancer check at the event. Enjoy music, refreshments, Wally's Wicked Good Ice Cream, and have the chance to win our 50/50 raffle!
