The 29th Annual Sprint for Life 5K and Sprint for Sprouts Kids’ Run will be held near the campus of MD Anderson Cancer Center on May 9, 2026.  Make a difference in the fight against ovarian cancer!

Founded in 1998, Sprint for Life has two missions:  to raise awareness and research funds for ovarian cancer. Hosted by The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Sprint for Life has raised more than $5.8 million for the Blanton-Davis Ovarian Cancer Research Program, one of the world’s leading efforts dedicated to ovarian cancer research.  Funding has allowed researchers to develop new clinical trials, understand the biology of ovarian cancer and develop new therapies for the disease.

THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE 5K….This high-energy 5K team challenge puts three-person teams head-to-head against others in timed competition where strength, wit, and teamwork matter as much as speed. Teams race in multiple competitive heats, completing 3 laps around the 1.05 mile course. At the end of every lap, teams face a physical or mental challenge that must be completed before moving on. See the Race Info section for more information.

Push through fatigue. Rely on your teammates. Stay sharp under pressure. Every decision, every rep, every step counts. Whether you’re chasing the podium or testing your limits, this challenge demands focus, resilience, and unity. Assemble your Squad. Run hard. Execute the challenges. Advance as one!

This event is Fundraising for Hope For Three, an Autism Advocacy charity that supports families raising children with Autism. Please visit the donation tab at the top of the page for more information an how you can help support.

Veterans with physical injuries and those with invisible wounds of war come together through KPN to find healing, support, and camaraderie. The ODV’s programs center around outdoor adventures and therapeutic activities, empowering veterans to overcome challenges and rediscover their independence.
