How to Participate

You can run or walk the 5K route, or if you can’t make it to Washington, D.C. on June 4, register to Sleep In for the Cure^®. Kids ages 5 to 12 can register as Kids for the Cure^® and participate in their own special race and activities. If you prefer to work behind-the-scenes, you can be one of our all-star volunteers.  

All registration fees include a Susan G. Komen Global Race^® for the Cure T-shirt, which will be included in your Event Kit along with your official Race bib (and timing chip if you are registered as a runner). The registration fee includes mailing of event kits to participants’ homes. Mailing of event kits will begin in Spring, 2011.

Walk
Raise funds and awareness for the global movement to end breast cancer forever. Register today to walk with us. If you would like your participation timed, you must register as a runner. 

Run
Registered runners will receive a timing chip in their Event Kit. Register to run today.

Sleep In for the Cure^®
Can’t make it to the National Mall on Race Day? You can still raise money for the cures. Register to Sleep in for the Cure and we’ll send you a comfy Komen Global Race T-shirt to snooze the day away in. Read more...

Kids for the Cure^® 
You don’t have to be a grown-up to help fight breast cancer. Kids ages 5 - 12 may register as Kids for the Cure. Parents/Guardians: If you are registering to participate, you may add your kids to your own registration instead of registering each of your kids individually. Read more…

Register in Person
Visit our calendar to find upcoming opportunities for you and your teammates to register in-person for the Komen Global Race. Each registrant does NOT have to be present to register, so you may collect registration forms from your friends, family or team members and bring them all at once.

Survivors
Whether you register as a walker, runner or sleeper, if you’re a breast cancer survivor (and indicate as such on your registration form) you will receive a pink survivor T-shirt, hat and bib along with your Race T-shirt, and will be awarded a special medal on Race Day. You will also be invited to participate in a special honorary ceremony the morning of Race Day. More information for survivors can be found here.

Teams

Multiply your impact on the cause by forming a team for the Komen Global Race for the Cure. Bring together friends, family, co-workers, neighbors or club members to join the fight to end breast cancer. Teams can consist of two or more walkers, runners, sleepers or kids. There is no additional fee to start or join a team.

More information for team captains can be found here.

When you register your team, you will be asked to select a division (for example, corporate, friend/family, armed forces, etc.). The top fundraising team in each division will receive special recognition at the Race. Check out the latest standings for each team division.
