Cancer Warriors 5k

The Cancer Warriors 5k is held in Belair, Maryland, on the Ma & Pa Trail. The in-person event features a simple out-and-back 5k course starting at the Ma & Pa Trail Head near Independent Brewery, with a second stream crossing, a fork near Route 24, and a turnaround near Tollgate Road before returning to the start. A virtual option runs from Sept 1–20 for those who cannot attend in person.

All proceeds support cancer research, with a post-race after party at Independent Brewery and options for ghost runners and an optional t-shirt. It welcomes runners of all levels and encourages family participation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
