Please join us for the 22nd annual running of Hoosiers Outrun Cancer 5K benefiting the Cancer Support Community South Central Indiana (CSCSCI), powered by Bloomington Health Foundation. Hoosiers Outrun Cancer is one of the oldest and largest 5K events in Indiana!

Hoosiers Outrun Cancer (HOC) proudly supports members of our local community who are fighting cancer including patients, their family, and their friends. Cancer Support Community South Central Indiana assists – at no charge - those in our community with needs beyond clinical care: wellness classes, art therapy, individual counseling, patient and family support groups, transportation assistance and more. Over the last 21 years, HOC has raised nearly $4 million to maintain these necessary resources right here in the South-Central Indiana. These services would not be available without the generosity and continued commitment from you and our community partners and sponsors.
