Organiser's description

Two endurance athletes will run across the United States, one starting on the west coast and another on the east, in a journey that will symbolize the cancer patient experience. Our athletes will cover 50K (31 miles) a day on average, each crossing half the country (approx 1,600 miles) until they meet in the center of the nation. The joining of our athletes will be the completion of their journey and will be marked by a meaningful moment at our Omaha, NE Hope Lodge, where well honor the determination, hope, and strength of cancer patients across the United States.
