About 2026 CAMC Foundation Run for Your Life 5 Mile Run/ 2.5 Mile Walk

Each June, the CAMC Foundation holds the CAMC Foundation Run for Your Life 5-Mile Run/2.5-Mile Walk. All proceeds from the event benefit colorectal cancer awareness and screening initiatives to help people who cannot otherwise afford critical screening procedures in our community. Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer, and the second deadliest in both men and women combined in the United States. 
The 5 mile run and 2.5 mile walk begins at Haddad Riverfront Park, takes runners and walkers through the streets of Charleston and returns to the park to finish. Each year, more than 400 runners and walkers come out to enjoy a morning of physical activity, music along the event course, refreshments at the finish line, and support a good cause.
Has colorectal cancer touched your life or someone close to you? We want to help share your story! 
By signing up, you can share your personal connection to colorectal cancer through our event’s platform and raise funds that stay right here in our community; benefiting the health of your friends, neighbors, and loved ones.
