Fuel to Fight Cancer 5K & 5-Mile Run | Hattiesburg News

Get ready to run for a cause that moves mountains—Forrest General Cancer Center’s 5K (plus a new 5-mile option!) is back this Saturday, October 17th, at 7:30 AM, with a two-mile walk and kids’ race too. The route? Through Midtown and past Thames Elementary, with police escort and hydration stations. Every step raises funds for the Fuel to Fight Cancer Fund, helping patients get to treatments without the stress of transportation costs. All proceeds go through the Forrest General Healthcare Foundation and are distributed via Pine Belt Foundation after screening. Race director Shannon Vega says community support has been incredible—and she’s calling on everyone to show up again this year to fuel hope, one stride at a time.
