- Catch Cupid – If you are looking for a real challenge, try to beat our Cupid to the finish line. If you beat our Cupid, you will be awarded an additional prize.
- Costume Contest – If running in a costume is your thing, then dress up like Cupid and be entered to win some great prizes that you are sure to love!
- Stroller 5k – Think pushing 50 extra pounds is tough? Bundle your little lovebugs up, and push yourself (and the stroller!) to the limit in this year’s Stroller 5k division. You’re in a league of your own now, first three strollers across the finish line will receive an award.
- Spirit Runner – Want to support Rally but not run? Become a phantom runner for $35 and receive a race shirt, race bib and finish line chocolates. A spirit runner does NOT participate in the race and will receive their race shirt in the mail after the event takes place on Feb. 10, 2018. Each spirit runner registration will allow a $25 donation to Rally.

MORE ABOUT THE RALLY FOUNDATION
Rally, a national 501(c)3 non-profit based in Atlanta, empowers volunteers across the country to raise awareness and funds for childhood cancer research to find better treatments with fewer long-term side effects and, ultimately, cures.
Rally began in Atlanta with a simple and impassioned request from one mom to another, as her 12-year-old son was fighting a brain tumor. When asked how they could help, she replied “Raise money for childhood cancer research and fund the best research wherever it may be.” The vision for Rally was born that day. In the 8 years since, Rally has given more than $5.25 million in research grants, funding more than 75 cutting-edge projects and fellows across the country.
