Brains Together Annual Event

The Brains Together Annual Event is a family-friendly morning gathering at RCTC Field House on College Parkway Southeast in Rochester, Minnesota. Participants can choose between a 2-mile walk and a 5K run; the 5K is chip-timed for those seeking an official result. This event is dedicated to honoring and remembering individuals impacted by brain tumors, and all participants register, regardless of whether they intend to run, walk, or primarily offer support. The course options ensure accessibility: a shorter walk is available for families and supporters, alongside a standard 5K for runners. Children aged 12 and under may register without charge when accompanied by a registered adult, facilitating family participation. Early registration aligns with Brain Tumor Awareness Month. A central tradition involves convening the brain tumor community to connect, demonstrate support, and commemorate loved ones.
