The third annual Bedford 5k to Beat Lung Cancer will once again challenge us all to put our feet in gear to help stomp out Lung Cancer!

To date, we raised over $11,000! Help us reach new heights this year!

The Bedford 5k to Beat Lung Cancer is about demonstrating that we as a community support those fighting or who have fought lung cancer; they are not alone.

It’s about our community, together, setting small goals and meeting the challenge so that one day, the greater goal of a cure may be achieved.

This year’s walk-run takes place Sunday, June 27 at 9 a.m.

Mail-in registrations for the 2010 Bedford 5K to Beat Lung Cancer are now available.

To register by mail, visit www.Bedford5k.com and download an individual, family, or team registration form.

Web registration will be available soon.

To show your support for the Bedford 5K to Beat Lung Cancer, why not purchase a milestone marker? For $50, you can emblazon your company logo or a personal message on a directional marker along the Bedford 5K route.

Our milestone markers are 20” x 20” signs placed along our 5k adult route and our 500m kids route that help direct runners and walkers along the course path.

They also demonstrate to our participants, our volunteers, our spectators and our community that we come together to help the Canadian Cancer Society beat lung cancer.

Milestone markers may be kept by their sponsoring company or individual as a memento of their contribution to the event.
