DetermiNation?

Make your race day even more special

Join the American Cancer Society DetermiNation team and volunteer to dedicate your participation in a marathon, triathlon, cycling race, or other endurance events to the fight against cancer. DetermiNation events provide athletes with access to professional training, an unparalleled community of support, and inspiration every step of the way. Your personal race victory will change your life, but the finish line will be just the beginning. Your triumph also means a triumph over cancer – where every step you take and every mile you conquer brings us closer to a world without cancer.??
