About this race

Delta Sigma Pi is hosting a cancer awareness 5k on May 2nd. This event is especially meaningful to us as one of our brothers recently fought and beat stage 4 testicular germ cell cancer. Seeing someone so close to us go through this has inspired us to take action to support young adults in similar situations. All proceeds from this event will be donated to the Dear Jack Foundation.

We will be hosting both a 5k run and a 5k walk at Tyson Park. The runners will start at 10:00 AM EST, and the walkers will follow at 11:00 AM EST. We encourage participants who live close UT's campus to walk or carpool to the event, as we will have limited parking at the park. 

Register today, spread the word, and join us as we run/walk to help build a future without cancer!

Join fellow runners on May 2, 2026 for the DSP's Dash for Cancer Awareness. It's a fantastic 5K featuring a flat and fast course in Knoxville.
