- Independence Day Double Mile For Detection | 4th of July Weekend (July 4-7)

More Info about Purple Paddy’s Virtual 5k:
On the weekend of St. Patrick’s Day 2025 (March 14-17th), Purple Paddy will be back with a virtual 5k for a world without pancreatic cancer.
Purple Paddy’s 5k is 100% virtual, allowing you to walk, jog, or run your 5k from wherever you are (even your treadmill… or a field of clovers) – all while raising important awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research and patient aid.
You can stay in the loop with other members of our Project Purple family who are also participating by joining and posting in this Facebook Group: www.facebook.com/groups/purplepaddy/
Distance: 5k (3.1 Miles)
Date: March 14-17 (St. Patrick’s Day Weekend)
Time: When you want
Location: From your home or anywhere you can
This will be Project Purple’s first of a 3-part virtual series for 2025.
By making your miles matter you are supporting Project Purple in 2 ways. First, you are bringing patients hope by supporting our patient financial aid program and sending care packages to those battling. Secondly, you are directly impacting and advancing research for early detection and a cure.
We encourage you to set up a team and invite your friends and family to join you in making a difference. Participation can happen from anywhere. Share your fundraising pages and make an even larger impact.
