Join us for the 11th Annual Ready, Set, GO(LD) 5K Walk and 8K Run (Formerly known as 5K Walk/8K Run to Live) to benefit The Pediatric Cancer Foundation of the Lehigh Valley. For the last 10 years, this event has been a Lehigh Valley favorite of runners and walkers alike. Last year the event raised over $70,000 to support our mission. Our goal this year is $80,000! This is a fun and exciting event that brings the community together to help local families that are battling childhood cancer. It’s a remarkable day filled with love and friendship, and we are delighted that you are looking forward to participating…either for the first time or once again.

This year’s event will take place on at the Ironton Rail Trail in Coplay and features an 8K run, a 5K walk, a raffle with fabulous prizes, music, food, entertainment, and a kids’ fun run and obstacle course for kids 12 and under. Join us and help SPREAD THE GOLD for kids with cancer and their families!
