The first Race For Hope was on April 25, 2004. The race was founded twenty years ago when Carleen Taylor made a promise to her friend Peggy that she would help her raise awareness that colorectal cancer occurs in those under 50 years of age. Peggy was diagnosed when she was 42 years old and had four young boys the same age as Carleen’s four boys. Peggy had been misdiagnosed due to her age and wanted to warn other people that colon cancer was not an old person's disease. Sadly Peggy passed away at 45, three weeks before the first race. The race went on to raise awareness. 

Tragically, after 12 years of warning others about this cancer in the under-50 population, Carleen's 22-year-old son Connor was diagnosed in February 2016. He passed away at the age of 23 in September 2016. He was misdiagnosed for months due to his age. This cancer is now on the increase in teens, 20, and 30-year-old people. We need to raise awareness in the public and with healthcare professionals. We need to raise research funds for young onset screening and treatments.  

Please join us as we remember lives lost , bring Hope to those in treatment and take action against this cancer.
