Race Information
This annual community fundraiser, launched in 2017, helps ensure access to world-class patient care and treatments based on the most advanced cancer research at The University of New Mexico Comprehensive Cancer Center.
100% of the funds raised by the participants, called Challengers, go directly to the program they choose that means the most to them in the fight against cancer.
Sponsors make this possible by generously covering costs of managing the Challenge. Together with in-kind sponsors, who contribute amenities for the event, all sponsors provide an excellent experience for the Challenger community.
