Unleash The SHE Rochester

Unleash The SHE is more than a race. It’s a celebration of women’s Strength, Health, and Empowerment… SHE! Join in the fun by running the all-women’s 5K or 10K events or grab some friends and walk in the Support the SHE Co-Ed 5K all while helping the Minnesota Ovarian Cancer Alliance (MOCA) raise money to fight ovarian cancer.

Join more than 1,000 women who will walk and run to fight against ovarian cancer at the Unleash the SHE 5K/10K: Presented by Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Since 2009 the Unleash the SHE: Presented by Mayo Clinic has supported the Minnesota Ovarian Cancer Alliance (M.O.C.A.) and is organized by Final Stretch, Inc. M.O.C.A. is a statewide non-profit dedicated to raising awareness and funding research needed to detect and treat ovarian cancer early and effectively.

To accommodate the growing event, the race takes place at the Mayo High School. Everyone can take part this year! We added an untimed 5K called the “Support the SHE” event will that will give men the opportunity to walk and run in solidarity with the women they support. Children can participate in a 1K Kids Fun Run.

All timed finishers will receive an Unleash the SHE race medallion, the perfect memento to remember the race.

As the event grows each year, many local ovarian cancer survivors, friends and family members take part in the Unleash the SHE: Presented by Mayo Clinic. Ovarian cancer is the deadliest of all gynecologic cancers, and because there is no test, it is often diagnosed at a late stage. More than 400 Minnesota women will be diagnosed with the disease this year.
