Organiser's Description

Breathe Strong 5K is more than a run or walkits a movement to honor lives touched by lung cancer and to fight for a future with earlier detection, better treatments, and stronger support. Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths and often shows little to no warning until it has progressed, making awareness and education lifesaving.

At the event, we will provide critical information about lung cancer risks, warning signs, screening, and information on support resources for patients and families. All proceeds from the Breathe Strong 5K will directly support lung cancer research and family support groups through a donation to the Blue Beautiful Skies Fund for Lung Cancer research at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center- The James. Donations help fund breakthroughs, offer hope, and remind everyone that they don't face this disease alone. Together, we walk to remember, to educate, and to help every breath count. We are thankful for the generous support from the Mary Ann Kirkby Living with Lung Cancer Fund at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center for the event T-shirts.

Register by 03/01/2026 to guarantee your selected T-shirt size. Registrations after 03/01/2026 will receive a T-shirt based on the available sizes.
