Race to Cure Sarcoma Boston

5K Timed Run and 1 Mile Walk! Spend a beautiful Sunday morning on Boston Common as a runner, walker or volunteer while raising awareness &amp; much needed funding for Sarcoma research, clinical trials &amp; patient support. This is a premier running event as well as a family friendly event with kid's activities &amp; music. Strollers &amp; volunteers are welcomed! Sarcoma is a rare cancer accounting for 1% of all adult cancers and 15-20% of all childhood cancers.&nbsp;There are currently no FDA approved treatments for Sarcomas, and there is a huge need to financially support research towards the advancement of diagnosis and treatment methods. We hope you can join this amazing Sarcoma Foundation of America event that funds education and advocacy efforts on behalf of sarcoma patients as well as private grants for research focused on finding treatments to end Sarcoma.
