About the Southcoast Health Cancer Care Nicole Podkowa 5k

The race starts and finishes at a cancer care facility in Fairhaven, and the course has water stations along the way. The event is cup-free, so bring your own bottle. A virtual option lets people participate from their own neighborhood if they cannot make it in person.

Day-of registration opens in the morning, well before the start, so showing up without a bib is fine. The race benefits a fund that helps cancer patients and their families with everyday necessities like housing, food, and transportation costs.
