Racing to Stop Lung Cancer

Starting Line with Katie & Meredith

Fall is here and Team LUNGevity is hitting its stride. We're so proud of our teams as we push limits and break records. This is a community unlike any other!

While there’s still so much excitement in the next couple of months, we’re already looking forward to 2025... We can’t believe it either! Join us for an old favorite or try out a new adventure:

  • Life Time Miami Marathon & Half
  • Schneider Electric Paris Marathon
  • Big Sur International Marathon, multiple distances
  • Grandma's Marathon, multiple distances

Secure your spot on the team helping drive progress in lung cancer research and giving hope to those needing it most. We'll be cheering you on, loud and proud! 

 
 

Racing Recaps

Coast to coast and beyond the Atlantic, Team LUNGevity is truly going the distance. Congratulations to all!

 
 
 

San Francisco Marathon: Tackling the marathon in honor of his father-in-law, Randy, and raising $2,100, David shares, "I will never take the air in my lungs for granted."

BMW Berlin Marathon: Our first team in Berlin and our first international race! In addition to their 26.2 miles, the team enjoyed a pre-race lunch on Saturday and post-race happy hour on Sunday evening. Amazing job to this inaugural team and their hard work raising over $26,000!

Anyone with Lungs Can Get Lung CancerSM

Meet Katie and Bridget, the powerful duo racing in the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon.

Diagnosed with lung cancer at just 32, Katie is running for those who can't: "I specifically want to dedicate my marathon to individuals who may have hoped to run [a marathon] themselves one day, but whose health is preventing them from doing so. This could have been me."

The need for lung cancer awareness is urgent. Register for Breathe Deep TOGETHER and unite with people nationwide for Lung Cancer Awareness Month to spread a crucial message: Anyone with lungs can get lung cancer!

Watch for Katie's full story on LUNGevity's social media this November!
