About the Event

In celebration of the 25th Anniversary of the Sean T. Smith Memorial Just A Short Run, GCXC invites you to our first-ever Community Run/Walk with our newest 2025 charitable partner, Cancer Bridges.  We are so excited to have Cancer Bridges on board and look forward to everyone seeing their space and learning about all the great work they do right here in Pittsburgh.  

We will have 6 great run or walk route options for participants with a pace group for you, whether you are a seasoned runner training for a spring marathon or a first-time walker! The event culminates with a fantastic pancake breakfast provided by Cancer Bridges staff and volunteers. 

In addition, GCXC will have some fun surprises with opportunities for discount registrations to upcoming events, raffle prizes, and more.   

 

Donations for Cancer Bridges will gladly be accepted at the run with a $5 suggested donation for all pancake breakfast participants.

About Pittsburgh

Scenic view of

The pleasure of Pittsburgh remains a well-kept secret. Though not built up by reputation, the city's unique combination of bridges, steep hills, and broad rivers make it one of the most naturally scenic cities in the country. Cheap food and beer abound in this true sports town and the locals are amazingly friendly. A city of about 303,000 (2021) in Allegheny County, at the center of a metro area of about 2.4 million in southwestern Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh is situated at the confluence of three rivers: the Monongahela and Allegheny Rivers, which meet to form the Ohio River. The city's unique terrain has resulted in an unusual city design and a hodge-podge of unique neighborhood "pockets" with diverse ethnic and architectural heritage. Pittsburgh has a rich history and, for its size, an unusual array of cultural treasures, largely thanks to the wealth that was generated when Pittsburgh was a hub of industry.
