8TH Annual
Brody Strong 8th Annual 5K is a running race on September 1–30, 2026 in Chassell, MI.
From the Organizer
Brody Strong Foundation 8th Annual 5K will be held during September to bring awareness to and raise money for pediatric brain cancer research. This year we are promoting a virtual event but will still gather more informally at the Chassell Cross Country trails on September 19th at 10 am for a group walk/run for those who wish to do the 5K in person on the trails again this year. Medals will be awarded for several age groups at the in-person event.
