This year’s annual American Cancer Society Sole Burner walk/run will take place on the morning of May 12th. Streets on the route (map below) will likely be blocked off starting at around 8:55 am and will reopen likely around 9:40 as the last walker goes by. Streets directly around City Park will be blocked off earlier as this is where the race will start.

  1. College Avenue Bridge – 8:50 until 9:40
  2. Lawe/E. South River – 9:00 until 9:50
