Description
Thank you for making our 2025 Below the Belt Stride and Thrive 5K our best year yet! Thanks to you, we raised $531,525 and the funds keep rolling in! Save the Date! Next year's race will take place at the Maryland Zoo on Sunday, June 7, 2026, fittingly National Cancer Survivors Day.
Your fundraising efforts from this year's race directly support Kelly Gynecologic Oncology Service's gynecologic cancer research projects, fellow and nursing education, patient care initiatives and survivor program. We are grateful to you!
We also want to thank those who donated tampons, pads and liners to support the work of The Violet Project, under the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics. We had five full bins of donated items - thank you! These will help underserved young women in our community. You can still contribute through their Amazon Wishlist if you didn't bring items on race day.
Photos and a post-race survey will be posted on the website soon. We welcome your feedback to continue to make the race even bigger and better.
We look forward to seeing you in 2026!
