WHO: You! Join us individually or create a team when you register. Last year, actors Vin Diesel, Sean Astin, Jason Biggs, Fred Savage, and many more celebrities joined hundreds of others for the first annual Miles for Melanoma at Universal Studios 5K Run/Walk. Join us and many other celebrity participants for the 2013 event on May 4, 2013!
WHAT: The 2nd Annual Miles for Melanoma at Universal Studios 5K Run/Walk - a 5K run/walk that will allow participants to experience the re-creation of Amityville Island from Jaws, Spartacus Square, and the village of Whoville. Funds raised through Miles for Melanoma go to support research, education and advocacy for melanoma.
WHERE: Universal Studios Backlot, Hollywood, California
WHEN: May 4th, 2013 Check-in and Registration begins at 7:00 a.m. Run/Walk begins at 8:30 a.m.
WHY: Every hour of every day someone dies from melanoma. Recent research shows that overall cancer rates are decreasing, except for melanoma diagnoses! One-in-50 people will be diagnosed with melanoma during their lifetime. The Miles for Melanoma at Universal Studios 5K Run/Walk will raise funds to fuel additional research for new and better treatment options, and support the MRF as the organization advocates for the melanoma community and educate people about the prevention and diagnosis of the disease.
