Strong Like Tom
Strong Like Tom is a charity 5K Run and Walk held to honor the event's namesake. The third annual edition takes place on September 6, 2025. The event offers a community race format with a 5K run and walk and accompanying activities such as a silent auction, music, and food.
All proceeds from this fundraiser are directed to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to support prostate cancer research, including work on advanced prostate and genitourinary cancers. The event operates under a 501(c)(3) nonprofit structure.
Strong Like Tom joined the BaseCamp Athletic Club Race Series in 2024, a local series that encourages participants to train and race in the community. The event began in 2023 and, according to listed totals, has raised $85,000 for prostate cancer research and recorded 623 participants to date.
The race presents a combination of on-course activity and off-course fundraising elements. Event materials list past race results, sponsor information, and donation links, and identify Memorial Sloan Kettering as the research beneficiary. The format and community ties emphasize local participation and charitable fundraising. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
