2011 Many Cancers One Run

The inaugural ONE RUN will be held on September 10, 2011 with registration starting at 7 am at Reverchon Park in Dallas. The event includes a 5K Run, a 1K Walk, 100 Yard Children’s Dribble & Dash, and many activities for the whole family.

ONE RUN benefits Cancer Support Community North Texas, the only Texas affiliate of Cancer Support Community, the largest international non-profit dedicated to providing support, education, hope and community to people affected by cancer. CSCNT offers a wide variety of support and networking groups, educational presentations, workshops and social events for those who have been touched by cancer. Our clubhouse is warm and welcoming and provides a place where men, women and children with cancer, as well as the family and friends that support them, can come together in community.

ONE RUN, like our unique community, unites all cancer diagnosis and survivors of cancer under one spectacular event. Race participants and teams representing a chosen diagnosis will be identified during the race in an awe inspiring display of color representing members of the North Texas community facing a cancer diagnosis and the community that supports them.

The real celebration begins after you cross the finish line. Vocal Trash band will kick off the Post-Race Party at 8:45 am. There will also be family friendly activities, and free food and drinks.
