The Fools Five Race is right around the corner - happening April 11, 2026 in Lewiston, Minnesota!

Since kicking off in 1979, this awesome event has raised over $2.7 million for cancer research, supporting organizations like the Eagles Cancer Telethon, Gundersen Medical Foundation, The Hormel Institute for Cancer Research, and the Masonic Cancer Center at the University of Minnesota.

If you’re planning to run (or walk… or enthusiastically survive it), that’s fantastic - head over to www.foolsfive.org

to get registered. You can also check out everything else going on that weekend - it’s more than just a race.

On a personal note, this one always hits home. This June marks 22 years since I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), and February marked 18 years since my bone marrow transplant. So yeah… I’ve got a pretty good reason to cheer a little louder on race day.

Whether you’re running, volunteering, or just showing up for the atmosphere - hope to see you there!
