Athena's Run for GYN Cancer
Athena's Run for GYN Cancer is a community event in Clemmons, North Carolina, that combines a timed 5K run with a non-timed runner/walker option called Proud in the Crowd. The event takes place at 4061 Clemmons Road, Clemmons, NC 27102. Registration fees listed are $35.00 for the 5K and $25.00 for the non-timed runner/walker option. Registration opens in April 2026 and closes at the end of June 2026.
The stated purpose is to increase public awareness about gynecologic cancers and to raise funds for education, advocacy, care and research. The event was founded in 2010 to promote awareness in the Piedmont Triad Region. Over its first ten years, the event raised nearly $500,000. Donations from these funds are used locally and nationally to support educational and advocacy programs, to assist care aimed at prevention and early detection, and to support research efforts related to gynecologic cancer care and cure. The stated vision is to end gynecologic cancers through prevention, early detection and effective treatment. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
