W.A.R. (Walk and Run) Against Ovarian Cancer

Join the community in Framingham, MA, on Sunday, June 14, 2026, for the 19th Annual W.A.R. (Walk and Run) Against Ovarian Cancer. This inspiring 5K run/walk is a USATF Certified Course, offering participants of all abilities a chance to contribute to a vital cause. The event kicks off from the Barbieri School at 100 Dudley Road, providing a central and accessible start and finish line for all participants. Typical race day conditions in mid-June bring pleasant temperatures, with highs around 77°F and lows around 57°F, alongside a low 17% chance of precipitation, creating a comfortable environment for your walk or run.

More than just a race, the W.A.R. Against Ovarian Cancer is a powerful fundraiser benefiting Ovations for the Cure of Ovarian Cancer. Your participation directly supports local ovarian cancer patients and their families, while also funding critical research and essential education and awareness initiatives. The day is designed for community engagement, with registration and sign-in beginning at 9:00 AM, followed by a welcome speech at 10:15 AM before the 5K officially starts at 10:30 AM.

The festive atmosphere continues post-race with "Family Fun Time" from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, featuring activities like face painting and opportunities to win prizes for top individual and team fundraisers. This event provides a supportive and spirited environment for survivors, their loved ones, and advocates to unite against ovarian cancer, with the Ulman Foundation's "Cancer to 5K Boston" program even selecting it as a goal race for cancer survivors. Come be a part of this impactful day, where every step taken helps make a meaningful difference in the fight against this disease.
