Description:

The 2nd Annual Crusaders Crush Cancer 5K

We are back for the 2nd annual Crusaders Crush Cancer 5k! We are ready to make this year bigger and better than last year! We have signs ready to go for an accurately marked course. Our goal is to make a meaningful impact in the fight against cancer. Proceeds from this event will again be split between two organizations that are especially close to our hearts: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and the Crusader Care Fund.

Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) is one of the world’s leading institutions dedicated solely to cancer care, research, and education. Recognized as one of the top two cancer hospitals in the nation by U.S. News & World Report for more than 30 years, MSK continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in cancer treatment. Their world-class scientists and clinicians work together to translate groundbreaking research into life-saving therapies. MSK’s mission is bold and clear: ending cancer for life.

The Crusader Care Fund provides vital support to Archbishop Stepinac High School families facing serious illness. This fund helps ease the financial burdens these families may encounter during incredibly challenging times, offering relief and solidarity when it is needed most.

By participating in the Crusaders Crush Cancer 5K, you’re not just running—you’re standing with families in our community and contributing to the larger fight to end cancer.

Run the traditional Loucks Masters' Mile which is 4 laps around the White Plains High School track under the lights, held right after the Thursday night scholastic track races, professionally timed. The start time is to be determined and contingent upon the end of Thursday night's track events for the scholastic competitors, but it is estimated to begin around 7:30 p.m. We have one of the youngest Masters' Miles starting at 30 years old and up. Competition includes coaches and local clubs. It's a good time and a friendly way to compete against your local competition. Register early and save. Pre-registration is $20 and Day of Race Registration is $30. Awards are given to the top 3 male and female Masters' Mile finishers and medals are given to the top 3 male and female age group finishers, presented on the Loucks podium. An award will be given to the top winning team or club based on the top three finishers. It's a great event included as part of our 3 day Memorial Glenn D. Loucks High

School Track & Field Games, one of the largest and most exciting events in the Northeast. All proceeds are donated to the Glenn D. Loucks Track and Field Games. Any questions, please email Laureen Fitzgerald, Race Director, at Lfitzgerald@compassadj.com. We hope to see you on the track!
