8th Annual: John's March Against Stomach Cancer
Sonoma Raceway will utilize its 12-turn road course to continue the fight against stomach cancer, the third leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide, at the 8th annual John’s March Against Stomach Cancer. John’s March has raised more than $110,000 over its seven-year history and is the only major fundraiser for No Stomach For Cancer on the West Coast. It is named in honor of longtime raceway spokesperson, John Cardinale, who passed away in 2013 after a two-year battle with stomach cancer.
THIS EVENT WILL BE HELD RAIN OR SHINE.
Distance:
The basic course is the 12-turn, 2-52-mile Sonoma Raceway road course. For those looking for more of a challenge, 5K and 10K race distances will be also marked. A shorter, less hilly course will be available for those who do not wish to complete the full 2.52-mile circuit.
Who can come?
This is an all-inclusive event – children, pets (on leash). Everyone is welcome. The raceway’s Sunoco Victory Lane will also be available for pictures before and after the march. No scooters or skateboards are allowed on track.
