Description

Hate cancer?  Like to run or walk?  Fan of music, free t-shirts, swag, raffles, and getting covered in color?  Have we got an event for you!

Hi! We are Mark Rapp and Oliver Buckner, Seniors in the Leadership Program at James River High School. We are putting on a Color Run 5k -- involving colored powder being thrown at participants -- to raise awareness and $$$ for Cancer Research, with proceeds going to the American Cancer Society. This event will be held on Saturday March 12, 2022 at James River High School, with the race starting at 9:30. We have both had loved ones die from cancer and we are passionate about doing our part to kick cancer’s butt.  We hope you'll come out, get colored by powder, and help us COLOR OUT CANCER!  We really hope to see you there, but if you can’t make it to the event there is a nifty “Donate” button up above that we sure would appreciate you clicking on.
