The Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition is thrilled to bring the 2026 Monster Mile Walk & 5K back to the iconic Dover Motor Speedway, where our community will unite to honor, remember, and support those impacted by breast cancer.
Whether you choose to participate in our traditional 1-Mile Walk or take on our NEW timed 5K Race, every step you take helps fuel DBCC's life-saving mission. Together, we'll celebrate survivors, honor loved ones, and stand alongside the families and individuals in our community whose lives have been touched by breast cancer.
This exciting return to the Speedway offers participants the unique opportunity to walk and race at one of Delaware's most legendary venues while making a meaningful impact. Every dollar raised supports DBCC's statewide programs, providing education, screening, patient navigation, survivorship services, and critical resources to Delawareans facing breast cancer.
Rev up your fundraising, gather your friends, family, and coworkers, and create a team to help us cross the finish line together. Every participant, every donation, and every mile brings us one step closer to a healthier future for our community.
