The Hero-Up Half Marathon invites you to lace up your running shoes, don your cape and mask, and pound the pavement for Children’s Cancer Research! 100% of race net proceeds go to children’s cancer research. This race will start and finish in Cook Park. There will also be a costume contest so we encourage everyone to come as their favorite superhero!

In our first five years, our donations have totaled $88,000 to the Doernbecher Foundation for children’s cancer research and to the Children’s Cancer Therapy Development Institute. Help us donate even more this year!
