5th Annual

5K Run
1 Mile Run

Plum Running Mustangs alumni have joined together to establish an annual 5K Run and 1K Run.  Our Stampede in the Park was created for two reasons – to stamp out leukemia and to help graduating Running Mustangs race to a brighter future.

The Hillman Cancer Center was opened in 2002 to provide specialized prevention, detection and treatment to cancer patients.  Beyond clinical care, patients and their families are provided with educational, counseling, nutritional and genetic resources. Funds raised from this race will specifically benefit research and practices focused on acute leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and lymphoma.

The first Plum Cross Country scholarship awards were presented in 2004 to recognize the senior athletes who have demonstrated leadership, devotion, and integrity to the team.
