TeamAICR is a charity marathon team that runs to benefit the American Institute for Cancer Research. And you are in luck - we still have spots open for the Big Sur International Marathon!

At AICR our mission is simple: we fund cutting-edge research and give people practical tools and information to help them prevent – and survive – cancer. We now know that simple, everyday choices can lower cancer risk, and we’re learning that what we eat and how we live continue to have a huge impact during and after cancer treatment. Our research shows that physical activity is a crucial factor in preventing many cancers, preventing recurrence, and helping survivors live longer, healthier lives.  TeamAICR runners not only raise money for cancer research, but act as ambassadors to help spread awareness on the crucial connection between exercise and cancer prevention and survivorship.

If running the Big Sur International Marathon is on your bucket list- contact Sarah at s.irish@aicr.org for more information on how to run in the Big Sur with TeamAICR!
