  Description

  A point to point 5K starting in Eldridge to Long Grove with the theme of sowing seeds for a new season of growing here in Iowa.

  But the fun doesn't stop there.

  We will be hosting another point to point 5K in the fall from Long Grove to Eldridge where we are bringing in the harvest metaphorically.

  The American Cancer Society has a goal to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. Relay For Life has been hosted by the American Cancer Society at University of Iowa (ACS at U'Iowa) student organization for more than a decade. Relay For Life has evolved in Iowa City adding friendly competition with the "Ribbon Run 5K" in 2023.

  At this year’s Relay for Life Ribbon Run 5K, we come together not only to celebrate strength and survivorship, but to honor every person affected by cancer. Each step we take and dollar we raise, helps fund lifesaving research, patient support, and hope for families in our community, to ensure everyone the opportunity to fight for life. By dressing up in your ribbon color; gold for childhood cancer, pink for breast cancer, lavender for all cancer types... you shine a light on the stories behind each cancer journey, reminding us that this fight is personal, powerful, and shared. Today, we run, walk, and stand together to make a difference and move closer to a future free from cancer.

  The Ribbon Run 5K is a timed 3.1-mile race that takes participants on a scenic route through Iowa City, beginning and ending in Hubbard Park. Whether you’re running or walking, all racers will start together at 9:00 AM. In-person check-in opens at 8:30 AM on April 25th at Hubbard Park, where participants will complete a waiver and photo release form—unless you registered online through RunSignUp, in which case these forms were already signed. Along the course, water stations and volunteers will be present to support, guide, and cheer you on. Please note that due to current construction, this year’s race will double-back, just make sure to follow the directional signs and markers to stay on the correct route.

  Follow us on Instagram @ACS.Uiowa for up-to-date event information!

  This event is a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. All proceeds benefit cancer research grants, lodging services for cancer patients like the Russel and Ann Gerdin Hope Lodge in Iowa City, patient programs across the country, and more. To read more about ACS, visit cancer.org.

  CORNBELT RUNNING CLUB 24 HOUR RUN

  1. Participants may be required in the second lane or beyond. Pylons or other restriction may be

  placed in the inside lane to enforce correct distance.

  2. Volunteers will count laps for all participants.

  3. This event is a “go as you please” race. Running, walking, and crawling are permitted. No

  mechanical assistance will be allowed. Runners may leave the track at any time, however they

  must notify their lap counters when leaving or returning to the track.

  4. Race numbers must be displaced prominently to assist lap timers. It also is recommended that verbal

  and/or visual recognition be made between the runner and his/her lap counter to ensure the correct

  recording of time and number.

  5. Lap counters generally work a three hour shift. When they change, it would be helpful for the runner to

  check in with the new lap counter.

  6. Lap direction will change after the first four hours, and every three hours thereafter. Finish the lap you

  are on when the change occurs and, then as directed, reverse direction at the start of the next lap in

  view of your lap counter.

  7. Should you have any concerns about your lap count, discuss this with your lap counter AND the lap

  counter supervisor as soon as possible. Yes, during the race.

  8. Participants will be responsible for their own handlers and aid. The race will provide water and

  some other items but a runner should not rely solely on this.

  9. Gatorade has been selected as the “Official Drink” of the Cornbelt Running Club 24 Hour Run.

  10. Restroom facilities are within easy walking distance from the track.

  11. We are working to secure post-race showers, more information available closer to the race.

  12. The winners, one male and one female, will be the runner who completes the most miles within the

  24 hour time limit.

  DOC DASH 5K

  Doc Dash is an annual 5K race that has been a tradition of the Carver College of Medicine since 1989. The event welcomes not only seasoned runners but also joggers, walkers, and young children. Recently, we have begun partnering with physical therapy students to support adaptive participants who may use equipment or require assistance to complete the course. Beginning at the medical campus, participants travel the course through nearby neighborhoods and the river trail before looping back to the finish line. Prior to the main event, a shorter event for young children (dubbed ‘Docling Dash’) takes place in the courtyard of the Medical Education and Research Facility (MERF).

  Proceeds are donated to the Iowa City Free Medical and Dental Clinic and the University of Iowa Mobile Clinic. These Iowa City organizations provide services to underserved populations that are uninsured or under-insured. These clinics draw many of their volunteers from the College of Medicine and students of other healthcare disciplines, including the Colleges of Physical Therapy and Pharmacy, to aid in the training of future healthcare professionals. Your participation and support benefit not only Iowa City but the future of healthcare in the state of Iowa and beyond.
