Cancer Warriors 5k
The Cancer Warriors 5k is an annual fundraising event held in Baltimore, MD, with the 9th edition scheduled for September 20, 2025. The race takes place on the scenic Ma & Pa Trail in Belair, featuring a straightforward out-and-back course that crosses streams and passes under Route 24, ending near the Tollgate Road underpass. Participants can run in person or join virtually as "ghost runners," with options to add a commemorative t-shirt.
The event fosters a supportive atmosphere, culminating in an afterparty at Independent Brewery. All proceeds benefit cancer research, supporting institutions like the Jimmy V Foundation. The race uses classic stopwatch timing and encourages community involvement in the fight against cancer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
