Sarcoma Strong Run/Walk 5K - Capital District
The Sarcoma Strong Run/Walk is organized as both in-person and virtual events across multiple locations in 2026. The virtual option runs Friday through Sunday, August 14 to 16, 2026 and can be completed from any location. The overall program includes a 5K run or walk distance.
The Capital District in-person event is scheduled for Saturday, August 15 at Saratoga State Park, with the gathering area on the lawn by the Hall of Springs. Registration for the Capital District event has a staged fee structure that increases on June 8, to $35, and then to $40 on race day. T-shirts are available for the first 300 registrants at the Capital District event.
Proceeds from the events are used to fund sarcoma research. A free entry option is available for anyone experiencing financial hardship using the code APPRECIATION at checkout. Team participation is supported: the first person to create a team becomes the team captain and sets a password; other team members join by registering and entering that password. The registration system may include pre-populated teams for certain centers.
Event information and details are provided for each listed location and for the virtual option. The event format includes both individual and team registrations and combines local gatherings with a virtual participation option. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
