17 Cities $1.7 Million Raised 11,850 Registered participants 500 Survivors Honored the 2012 Undy 5000 series was sponsored nationally by Boehringer Ingelheim, the maker of dulcolax; Salix pharmaceuticals; Amgen oncology; Genentech; ethicon endo-Surgery and Bayer HealthCare. 18 Colon Cancer Alliance 2012 Annual Report uNDy 5000 5K ruN/wALK SErIES our Undy 5000 5K series fuses community involvement, screening initiatives and media buzz to bring the hammer down on colon cancer. This unique event is raising eyebrows and awareness by jumpstarting conversations, motivating people to get screened, celebrating survivors and remembering those lost to the disease. The series provokes discussion in unconventional ways. For instance, instead of the traditional race day t-shirt, participants receive a pair of commemorative boxer shorts – a tongue-in-cheek reference to the area affected by colon cancer. And although the Undy 5000 is a fun event, its serious message – screening can save your life – is not lost. A heartwarming ceremony follows the run, recognizing attending survivors and honoring those we’ve lost. This year, the Undy 5000 visited 17 U.S. cities and, with the help of 12,000 supporters, raised more than$1.7 million for local screening efforts, patient support services and awareness programs. By creating an open dialogue and a sense of camaraderie among those affected by colon cancer, the Undy 5000 is beating this disease, one step at a time. Triplets for Tony, participants at the Philadelphia Undy 5000, dress up and run in honor of a loved one lost to colon cancer. Participants dress up in Batman costumes at the 2012 San Diego Undy 5000.
