Toni's Race: Strollin' for the Colon

Help us continue to fight colon cancer! Come join us September 11, 2027

According to the Colon Cancer Coalition, colon cancer is the 4th most common cancer in the U.S. and the 2nd leading cause of cancer deaths. Early detection can make all the difference!

Colon cancer is preventable, treatable and beatable!

Strollin' for the Colon is proud to hold Toni's Race for its 16th year. The event will be held again at Stewart Lodge in Mendon Ponds Park. As with past years there will be a USATF certified (NY23008KL) 5k race to be immediately followed by a 1.5 mile walk. Strollin' for the Colon is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds to support individuals and families affected by colorectal cancer. Proceeds from the event will again benefit local organizations in Livingston and Monroe counties. These organizations provide support and/or financial assistance to patients and their families and provide education about the importance of early screening for colon cancer. Strollin' for the Colon also offers seed funding for research into colorectal cancer in order to someday beat this disease.

Along with the race and walk there is a fun run and other activities for kids. There is fun, music, food, ice cream and the opportunity to win great prizes! Also attending are physicians and vendors to provide information and answer any questions about colon cancer and any related topics.
