OutLiving Cancer

Last year we celebrated our first OutLIVING Cancer, creating an international day of joyful activities reaching far beyond the Louisville marathon. This modification was a spark of light in the pandemic. Seeing you outbiking, outhiking, outdancing cancer was inspiring. As a result, this event will be forever changed.

We’re so excited to be OutLIVING Cancer again this year by “OutLIVING for Lara,” with the concept of doing any activity that brings you joy wherever you are!

Join us May 20-22, 2022 – for OutLIVING Cancer weekend!
