Outrun the Rays is a non-profit organization based in Dubuque County, IA, formed by melanoma survivors and their families and friends, working to "Rays" melanoma awareness and sun-safety.
Proceeds from race registration and our generous sponsors and donors go to providing grants to organizations implementing sun-safety measures, providing free sunscreen to 3,000+ athletes each summer and "Ban the Tan" programming for local high schools during prom season.
