The Kosten Foundation has announced their 10th annual Kick It 5K will now be a virtual event hosted November 5-19 during Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month. The walk/run fundraiser has been rescheduled from April due to COVID-19 and rescheduled again from October to the final dates of November 5-19 to align with Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month.

Out of an abundance of caution, the Kosten Foundation is making the 5K a virtual event in November. Participants can now sign up to run or walk the virtual Kick It 5K and/or donate to help fight Pancreatic Cancer and support those fighting the disease at this link https://kickit5k.raceroster.com/page/home12. Those interested can also visit kostenfoundation.com for more information.

Participants can now social distance and either run or walk their 5K wherever they want over a two-week period. Runners, walkers, and supporters that signed up during the earlier registration periods will have their registrations carried over to the new date.

Over the last 17 years, the Kosten Foundation has raised more than $2 million for research, awareness, and support against pancreatic cancer. The Kick It 5K is the organization's largest fundraiser for the cause.
