Hope... It's a Beach Thing!!!

HOPE...It’s a Beach Thing is a 5K Walk/Run at the University of Dayton Humanities Plaza in Dayton, Ohio. This annual event raises funds for brain tumor research, honoring a person who died from glioblastoma in 2012, and is inspired by his love of running and UD. The course features a 5K route with a drink station.

It welcomes runners and walkers of all ages and abilities, with pets and kids encouraged to join; strollers are common. Over the years, the event has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s brain tumor research, making a meaningful community impact.
