Fight Cancer with Every Stride.

The Boulevard Race is a 4-mile run and walk along some of the coolest streets in downtown Spokane’s University District. This gem of a neighborhood was once the warehouse district of Spokane and has been transformed into a higher education hub area for universities including Gonzaga Univ and WSU-Spokane.  The course features gorgeous tree-lined streets, the iconic Gateway Bridge, train trestles and tunnels, majestic views of the Spokane River, and historic brick buildings from a bygone era including the famous Schade Tower.

And the entertainment along the race course is nothing like you’ve ever seen: Scream Tunnels; Cheer Zones; Cow Bells; Bubbles; Bands; Donuts; Frozen Zone – – and all set to the soundtrack of our world-famous DJs who spin the tunes every quarter mile!   Join us for an unbelievable race experience during Spokane’s most beautiful time of year.

Street of Dreams. Avenues of Hope.

The race is a Community Cancer Fund (“CCF”) event. CCF is a local nonprofit that provides financial support to cancer patients and their families, as well as funding to the organizations that serve them including Ronald McDonald House, Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital, YMCA Camp Goodtimes, and the newly launched WSU Medical School Pediatric Residency program at Providence. In the past nine years, CCF has raised more than $28 million to support cancer patients. And there is much more work to be done!
