L.A. Cancer Challenge 5K Walk/Run

The L.A. Cancer Challenge, hosted and produced by the Hirshberg Foundation for Pancreatic Cancer Research, marks the beginning of Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month and the Halloween season with a unique twist. Participants will be dressed in animated costumes or purple T-shirts to demonstrate unity in the fight against pancreatic cancer, the disease with the highest mortality rate among all major cancers.

In-person and virtual participants are invited to be part of SoCal’s most beloved charity race and to make a difference in the fight against pancreatic cancer. Registration fees range from $45 (adults)/$25 (youth) to $55 (adults)/$35 (youth). Be sure to check for deadline dates as rates are subject to change.

The Fit Family Expo promises a fun-filled day for all, offering a range of Halloween activities and attractions that cater to both kids and adults. From interactive health and fitness booths to an adult costume contest and a kids’ costume parade, there’s something for everyone. The fundraiser also features the whimsical Candyland Kids Zone with life-size candy decor, festive arts and crafts, and moonbounces as well as a giant donut wall for participants who cross the finish line.
