About the RACE 2 HOME
This race is organized by a youth baseball team raising money for pediatric cancer research and care, with a personal connection to the cause: a player on the team was treated at St. Jude, and the race name ties the baseball meaning of home to what home means for families going through childhood cancer treatment.
The course runs through the MC Choctaw Trails, a wooded trail system that gives the race a natural, unhurried feel away from roads and traffic. It is a cause-driven event more than a competitive one, and the origin story behind it is worth reading before you show up.
