Race Information

Join the annual Outpacing Melanoma 5K and the Outpacing Melanoma Foundation in the fight against melanoma. Lace up your shoes and race toward a brighter, melanoma-free future. Every mile you run and every dollar you raise helps fund vital research and increase awareness for prevention and early detection in the greater Kansas City community. Your participation, whether you're running, walking, or cheering from the sidelines, provides refreshing hope for those battling this disease.

This is a scenic 5K run/walk for all ages and fitness levels. Strollers and dogs on a leash are welcome. There will be a special post-race celebration with activities for kids and families, themed shirts (size not guaranteed if registering after the cutoff date), and awards for top finishers. They will also have a custom Outpacing Melanoma finisher medal.
