It will consist of a 5K run/walk and a 1-mile walk. Julia Stroud, a lung cancer survivor and advocate, said in a news release that more than 400 lung cancer survivors and supporters have registered.

Data from the National Lung Cancer Partnership indicates one in 13 men and one in 16 women will be diagnosed with lung cancer in America, killing more people than breast, colon, prostate, liver, kidney and melanoma cancers combined, the release said.
