Lace up for a cause at the Coaches For Curing Cancer 5K/10k Run/Walk on Saturday, June 6, 2026, in beautiful Savannah, Georgia. This uplifting event, kicking off at 7:30 AM from Howe 2 Run at 11 Gateway Blvd South, offers participants the choice of a 3.1-mile (5K) or 6.2-mile (10K) distance, making it accessible for runners and walkers alike. Now in its 10th year, this race, spearheaded by "DA" Coach Karl DeMasi and the Savannah Sports Report, has built a strong reputation within the community for its unwavering dedication to a vital mission: raising funds for childhood cancer research and providing crucial support to affected families.
Participants can expect a race morning filled with community spirit, knowing every step contributes to a significant impact in the fight against childhood cancer. The early 7:30 AM start time is a thoughtful consideration for runners, helping to beat the typical Savannah summer conditions, which historically see highs around 90°F and lows around 70°F. While specific course details regarding terrain and elevation are not extensively published, the focus remains on the powerful collective effort to make a difference.
