It’s hard for us to believe, but it’s true, we are embarking on our 14th year of this wonderful event! We cannot begin to thank our participants, our volunteers, our vendors, our police department and everyone else who come out in droves year after year to help in any way they can to help us deliver a fun and safe race. We are truly appreciative for your continued support! Just a quick reminder that the funds we raise from this event continue to support Danville-Pittsylvania Cancer and the good work they do in our community. Since the 1970’s, DPC has been serving individuals within our community who are undergoing cancer treatments. As a non-profit organization, DPC relies on support from the community to continue its mission of “Unraveling the Effects of Cancer”. We remain committed to supporting them and we couldn’t do it without YOU!!!
We are changing things up just a bit this year as we strive to keep this race current, FUN, and accessible to all. We have been asked for years to offer a half marathon option and we have decided to do just that in 2024! Unfortunately, for those of you who have enjoyed our bike rides, we have chosen to eliminate the ride this year. With the number of volunteers required to pull off this race, we feel it's best to move forward with these changes as we turn our focus toward streamlining while still accommodating the majority of our participants.
As we look forward to next year, we have adjusted our courses to more easily add on distance for our future half marathon. The 5K Walk will now enter the River Walk Trail and turn RIGHT toward the YMCA. The 5K Run and the 10K Run will now enter the River Walk Trail and turn left toward Dan Daniels. The maps may be accessed on the website by the tab entitled, 5K Walk/5K Run/10K Run Maps. We have also changed our kids fun run from 1 mile to a 1/2 mile distance. This is also in response to requests we have received mostly from parents of our littlest supporters! We do listen to the feedback that we receive from you all and respond to your requests as we are able to.
We are excited about the changes we have made and hope you are too!
We have some important dates coming up that we want you to be aware of.
MARCH 1, WILL BE A PRICE INCREASE OF $5 FOR THE 5K WALK, 5K RUN, AND THE 10K RUN. The kids fun run will not increase in price!
MARCH 1, WILL ALSO BE THE T-SHIRT DEADLINE-PLEASE SIGN UP EARLY! We don’t like to see people disappointed when they don’t get a shirt, but we are working with a deadline as well which is given to us by our t-shirt vendor.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your continued support of us and of the Danville-Cancer Association! We look forward to seeing you on April 15th!
Your B2B Crew!
