Run For Breast Cancer 5K/10K/13.1 KANSAS CITY

Run For Breast Cancer 5K/10K/13.1 KANSAS CITY takes place in Kansas City, Missouri, on December 12, 2026. The half marathon (13.1 miles), the 10K, the 5K and a family one-mile fun run share a 7:30 a.m. start. The morning exists to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer, and it is open to all ages and abilities with optional timing, so you can race it or walk it. Registration covers a race shirt, a finisher medal, a towel or gift, a digital training pack and access to local running clubs, mailed straight to you; a virtual entry is also available.

Plan backwards from the distance you enter. A 13.1 in mid-December needs a build that started in the fall, roughly twelve weeks with a weekly long run and a couple of steady efforts at your intended pace. Anything shorter is far more forgiving, and the one-mile run gives children something real to finish. Because additional donations are tied to miles logged after the event, the training pack in your entry is worth actually using.
