About the 2026 San Diego Miles for Melanoma 5K
Miles for Melanoma is a fundraising 5K tied to the Melanoma Research Foundation. The course is in San Diego, though the organizer's notes do not describe the route in any detail. What does come through is that the event draws people at a range of paces, brought together by a shared reason to be there rather than a finish time.
