2026 IncredibleBank Hope Starts Here Challenge

The IncredibleBank - Hope Starts Here Challenge benefits the Upper Michigan Brain Tumor Center (UMBTC), which is dedicated to supporting patients and families affected by brain cancer through treatment, research, education, and advocacy. SAME LOCATION! What can we say? It's been a hit since 2022 so once again, we'll be back at the Superior Dome with a fully outdoor event on the Northeast side of the building near Lake Superior. This will be where all races start and end, and also where we'll have our awards ceremony and lunch. MARK YOUR CALENDAR! This year, Hope Starts Here will take place on Saturday, June 13th. PRE-EVENT EXPO! Stop by IncredibleBank's Third Street location (1101 N. Third Street, Marquette) on Friday, June 12th anytime between 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM to say hi to our crew and pick up your t-shirt and bib. (Pickup will also be available at the main event on Saturday morning). While we do our best to make sure everyone gets their desired t-shirt size, please keep in mind that these are distributed as first come, first serve at the expo and on race day. VIRTUAL OPTION: Unable to participate with us in person this year? No problem. Check out our virtual event option. Please share this option with your long distance friends. We love seeing photos of virtual HSH participants across the country! Virtual participants will receive an event t-shirt in the mail 2-4 weeks after the event. ADDITIONAL INFO: Timed by our friends at Superior Timing. Participants are divided into divisions by gender and age, and awards are given to the top finisher in each division. All kids are winners in Molly's Mile and will receive a medal, with extra-special recognition for the top boy and girl finisher in each Molly's Mile age division! Each race registration includes an event t-shirt and lunch (the virtual option does not include lunch and is not timed or eligible for awards). A BIG THANK YOU TO LAST YEAR'S SPONSORS!
