​We’re on a mission to accelerate cures for cancer by funding collaborative research and clinical trials among San Diego’s top cancer research and treatment centers: Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego Health, the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute, and Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego. 
Cancer is the #1 cause of death in San Diego and #2 cause of death in the United States. 1-in-3 of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime. In some way, this disease will touch all of our lives: every person, every family, every community.
Since its inception, Padres Pedal the Cause has donated more than $10 million to fund 53 local cancer research projects in San Diego, including five clinical trials. We provide funding for all types of cancer research, with grants awarded to fund explorative discovery research that target specific cancer types and universal studies that benefit multiple kinds of cancer and tumors.
It is our goal that research funded by Padres Pedal the Cause will lead to increased survivorship and ultimately, cures for cancer.

42 YEARS AND RUNNING...
This Signature Event takes place in Historic Downtown Riverside and is an Inland Empire Tradition! These courses wind through the historic parks, sites and neighborhoods of Riverside, making a picturesque event for runners and spectators alike.  

We are proud to be a partner in Riverside's first run series, the Run Riverside Challenge. Participants who cross the finish line at the Riverside Police Officers Association’s Hometown Heroes Honor Run, the Mission Inn Run, and the Citrus Heritage Run will receive a specially designed medal for completion. 
Participants that complete all 3 events in the challenge (in any consecutive order) will receive a special medal. All you need to do is sign up for the races individually and complete all 3 in a row. We keep a finishers list for all events. It really is that simple! What are you waiting for?

The Event kicks off on Saturday afternoon with the Clark's Health & Fitness Expo offering pre-registration, packet pick-up, live demonstrations, vendor booths, and a bench press contest! 

On Sunday morning, Race Day continues with the Expo, kids’ fitness festival, beer garden, and a Finish Line Festival. Awards to the overall men and women in each race and to the top three male and female finishers in each age division. 

Families are encouraged to have their children participate in the 1/2K or 1K events, and have lots of fun at the Kids Fitness Festival! 

We hope you will join us in celebrating the 42nd year of this fundraising event!
