Race For Hope Derriere Dash
Race For Hope Derriere Dash is a community 5K event scheduled for October 25, 2026 in Westerville, Ohio. The event is presented as part of the Race For Hope activities and is described as a way to remember lives lost to colorectal cancer, bring hope to those in treatment, and take action against the disease. The event is currently in the planning stages.
Race For Hope began in 2004 and started as a 5K to raise awareness about colorectal cancer occurring in younger adults. The organization lists several ongoing objectives: raise awareness about colorectal cancer, raise research funds to support advances in treatment and facilities, and educate the public about signs and symptoms, with special attention to people under 50. The material for the event references research noting rising colorectal cancer rates in younger age groups.
The Derriere Dash is presented as a 5K race within that long term effort. The site includes historical context about the race's foundation and ongoing need to inform the public, remember those affected, and support research and education efforts related to colorectal cancer.
