About This Event
Join us on Saturday, April 5, 2025, for our Give Cancer the Boot Survivorship 5K and 1-Mile Walk to celebrate cancer survivors and support Patient and Family Services at Mays Cancer Center, home to UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson Cancer Center.
At Mays Cancer Center, we define a "cancer survivor" as anyone diagnosed with cancer from the time of diagnosis and beyond, whether still in treatment or cancer-free.
This event is open to all: adults, kids, runners, walkers, healthcare providers, patients, survivors, caregivers and supporters.
Dogs at the event: Dogs are not allowed on university properties except for a “service animal” as defined under Titles II and III of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Registration Fees
- Cancer survivors and children under 12 - Free
- Early bird special - $30 through March 3
- Regular registration - $35 through April 3
- Packet pickup day (April 4) and race day - $40
You must register by March 3 to be guaranteed a shirt.
Finisher Medals are guaranteed for the first 750 participants.
Our Give Cancer the Boot Survivorship 5K and 1-Mile Walk unites cancer survivors, their families, friends, and our dedicated care teams in a shared mission: to raise awareness and funding for the Patient and Family Assistance Fund at the Mays Cancer Center. This fund provides life-saving treatments and essential social service support, such as nutrition and clinical dietitian services, emergency lodging for those who qualify, and social work assistance to help patients overcome barriers to care. This program relies exclusively on fundraising and the generosity of donors and philanthropic partners to provide these resources to our patients and their families.
