A WORLD
WITHOUT CANCER
Join us on April 9th for a celebration of survivorship and cancer cures!
Padres Pedal the Cause is Curebound’s signature event, bringing together thousands of participants each year to raise money for collaborative cancer research. Hosted in partnership with the SD Padres, "Pedal" is San Diego’s most impactful fundraising experience with over $15 million raised to date for research in all types of cancer.
You will be inspired by the energy and passion of the Pedal community made up of survivors, families & friends, doctors, scientists, children and volunteers – all of whom are determined to see cures in our lifetime.
100% of every dollar raised funds life-saving cancer research in San Diego.
Join the forward movement toward cures and help raise funds for life-saving cancer research in San Diego. There are so many ways to get involved. Choose how you'd like to participate:
RIDE
Pedal one of our four cycling courses in honor of someone you love who’s life has been changed by cancer. Choose from 25, 55, 88 and 100 miles. All rides go out over the Coronado Bridge!
RUN/WALK
Join us for a scenic 5K in downtown San Diego and finish on the field at Petco Park. Whether you run or walk, individuals, families and teams are all welcome to go at their own pace and take a first step toward ending cancer.
SPIN
The best spin of your life in this inspirational setting! Join us for rooftop spinning atop the historic Western Metal Supply Co. building overlooking Petco Park downtown San Diego. Motivational rides by SD’s most popular teachers + incredible music by the Pedal DJ make these 50 minute spin classes an awesome way to support cancer research.
CURE
Padres Pedal the Cause is founded on the deep-seated belief that cures are possible; that cancer is curable. With the knowledge that each small finding leads to a larger discovery and then one day, a breakthrough. Though the road may be long and the uphill climb may be steep, every mile brings us closer to cures.

WAYS TO
PARTICIPATE
THE CENTURY
88 AND 100 MILE OPTIONS
Our longest and most challenging rides, the Century is designed for experienced cyclists. This course follows the route of the Olympic Challenge, but goes beyond to the idyllic Otay Lakes. From there, the route breaks off from Honey Springs to ride the pastoral Lyons Valley Road before turning around to finish at Petco Park. Definitely the most difficult course, but also the most rewarding.
OLYMPIC CHALLENGE
55 MILES
An intermediate-level course fit for cyclists who want a solid challenge, while still leaving time to celebrate and relax in the afternoon. The O.C. leads out over the historic Coronado Bridge and down the Silver Strand before turning south along the border near International Park. You will make it to the Olympic Training Center before turning west to meet up at the Bay Shore Bike Way.
1 HR SPIN
The best spin of your life in this inspirational setting. Join us for rooftop spinning atop the historic Western Metal Supply Co. building overlooking Petco Park downtown San Diego. Motivational rides by SD’s most popular teachers + incredible music by the Pedal DJ make these 50 minute spin classes an awesome way to support cancer research.
KIDS
Kids joining forces to end cancer! The Kids Challenge takes place on a safely enclosed youth track at Petco Park for children ages 3 to 12. Finish on the field with Batman, Superman and the Padres Pedal cancer crusaders. Scooters, training wheels, bikes and capes are welcome. (Helmets required for all participants.)
