Make your miles mean more! No matter what race you’re running, you can join the AACR Runners for Research team in their quest to defeat cancer.
Official race shirts have been relabeled for a broader range of body types, regardless of gender. We recognize that gender is expansive, and so should our clothing. To accommodate this diversity, we've introduced race shirts based on size and fit to ensure everyone feels comfortable and confident in their race gear. To provide more clarity during this transition, Loose Fit shirts (formerly “men’s”) and Slim Fit shirts (formerly “women’s”) are now offered.
Teams and donations: Note that teams and donations are for AACR Runners For Research only. Check with your contact if you are running on behalf of an affiliate charity. All team names will be vetted and if found to be offensive or derogatory, the team captain will be asked to modify to something appropriate for a family friendly event.
Note on in-training gear. There is a $15 shipping and handling charge for in-training gear to Canada & Mexico. All other international in-training orders must be picked up at the Expo.
If you are ordering merchandise or gear, please ensure your shipping address field includes apartment or condo numbers. We cannot ship to incomplete addresses.
