On Sunday, April 24 at 10am, join us at the inaugural Reverse Run. A backwards, 1-mile run to increase awareness for colon cancer symptoms by having participants cross the finish line where the problem starts – the butt.
Colon cancer is the second deadliest cancer in the US, but with early detection it’s also the most treatable. So let’s break the ice with laughter and get people talking about early warning signs.
Whether you’re a serious runner or a beginner, this backwards fun-run will be a great time for a good cause. Make your butt matter by getting it across the finish line! 
100% of your registration fee will go to <A TARGET="_blank" HREF="http://merediths-miracles.org" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Meredith’s Miracles Colon Cancer Foundation</A>, your 10-dollar donation also nabs you a limited-edition Reverse Run T-shirt.
