Sarcoma Strong 5K Run/Walk
Sarcomas are a rare form of cancer that affect connective tissues (bones or soft-tissues). Treatment for sarcomas requires a multi-disciplinary approach, tailoring a combination of surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy for each patient.
The Sarcoma Strong Run/Walk provides a day to come together to show solidarity and support for our local sarcoma patients and their families. Our goal is to support sarcoma discoveries and advancements in diagnostics and treatment by funding research. Participate, volunteer or donate to help us be Sarcoma Strong.

Map of the 5K course!
The image itself doesn't seem to want to upload to to it's size, so please visit this link to see the map:

The Edgewater Pavillion highlighted in yellow will be where you can check-in and also where post-run activities will be taking place. Circled in purple are some nearby parking lots to the start/finish. The map itself does not seem to be exactly to scale; we have mapped out a course that is as accurate to 5 km as we could get!
