From the Race Organizer
Steps for Sarcoma is returning for its 17th year on Sunday, September 20, 2026 and we can’t wait to see you there! Last year, the amazing Steps community donated over $147,000 to advance the interdisciplinary sarcoma research program at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC – James), contributing to a total of more than $2.2 million so far. You can help make 2026 our best year yet by joining us for this easy‑paced, dog‑friendly walk around The Lawn at CAS. The morning will feature tasty food trucks, face painters, a kid's zone, fun giveaways, a chance to meet cancer researchers from the OSUCCC – James and plenty of smiles. Whether you’re making your way through course, volunteering or cheering from the sidelines, it’s sure to be a joyful day of community, hope and family fun—all for a great cause.
