About the F Cancer 5k Run & Walk
The course runs through Point Defiance, one of Tacoma's larger parks, so the surroundings are trees and trails rather than pavement and traffic. The race exists because one family lost someone to breast cancer, and that origin is close to the surface. Runners and walkers show up together, and the atmosphere reflects that shared reason for being there.
