Race Information
The Annual Pink & Teal Challenge (formerly known as the Pink Ribbon Walk & Run) takes place at Genesee Valley Park. Per tradition, the 5k Run used to be a women-only race - allowing breast and gynecologic cancer survivors and their women allies to cross the finish line first.
The renamed run is now more inclusive to the breast and gynecologic cancer community and organizers hope you can join them! It's still a two-in-one event with a run and a walk, and it also offers a virtual option.
The Coalition challenges you to help them make the event bigger and better than ever by challenging your friends, family, and coworkers to join in raising funds for cutting-edge programming, education, and support available, free of charge, for anyone facing a breast or gynecologic cancer diagnosis.
