This year is our 25th Beat the Odds race/walk! This event gives everyone in our community a chance to celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer and to remember loved ones lost. It is a time to grieve, a time to find healing, and a time to celebrate and give hope those lost to cancer will never be forgotten and celebrates those victorious over cancer. It is an opportunity to come together as a group and declare that we won't allow cancer to defeat us, but instead we will be overcome with life; the circle of life!

It is a great marriage of family togetherness, blending with nature, and honoring those who have and are battling cancer. While running and walking is an individual sport, it is individuals as a group supporting cancer patients and survivors. The race growth is a tribute to its organizers and our community giving of themselves for others. We encourage everyone from individuals to businesses to other kids to become involved and help make a difference. Beat the Odds isn't just a race, but a race to beat the odds!
