Event summary
Get ready to lace up your running shoes for the Run to Tijuana 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, November 4, 2023! Set in the charming and historic town of Saltville, Virginia, this event will take participants along the scenic Salt Trail, a beautifully transformed pedestrian and bicycle path. While the 5K is a fun and casual run/walk—not officially timed and without medals—it's a fantastic opportunity to support a meaningful cause. All proceeds from the event will go towards funding vital cancer treatments for Felicia Coulthard, who aims to travel to the Hope for Cancer Center in Tijuana, Mexico, to receive holistic therapies that aren't always available in the U.S.
Whether you choose to join us in person or opt for the virtual experience, your participation makes a difference! Don't forget to register by October 22 for the best price, and consider selecting the "No Shirt" option if you'd like to donate your full registration fee to this important cause. Together, let's make strides for Felicia's health and spread awareness about the importance of alternative cancer treatments!

Organiser's description
Join us on November 4, 2023 for the Run to Tijuana 5K Run/Walk. This event will take place in the beautiful, historic town of Saltville, Virginia. We will be using the Salt Trail, an old rail bed that has been converted to a community pedestrian and bicycle trail. The 5K is not an officially timed event and no medals will be awarded.
All proceeds from this event will go to fund treatment for Felicia Coulthard. Her goal is to make the trip to the Hope for Cancer Center in Tijuana, Mexico where she will receive multiple treatments and therapies to strengthen her body to keep the cancer from returning or to be able to fight it off. Hope for Cancer uses alternative and holistic approaches that cant always be obtained in the United States. The cost of the treatments is $42,000 and is not covered by insurance.
We are offering a virtual option for those who are unable to attend on the day of the race. The virtual registration includes an additional $5 to cover the cost of shipping your event t-shirt. Register by October 22 for the best price.
Both events have a "No Shirt" option for the giveaway. If you would like to donate your full race registration amount, select this option.
