Why a T.E.A.L.® Walk/Run™ Event?

These events celebrate the courage of ovarian cancer survivors and the strength of the families who’ve been touched by the disease while spreading awareness to the public and raising money for research. The name of the T.E.A.L® Walk/Run™ Race Event evokes both Teal, the color that symbolizes ovarian cancer, and for the not-for-profit organization that established the events, Tell Every Amazing Lady About Ovarian Cancer Louisa M. McGregor Ovarian Cancer Foundation also known as T.E.A.L.®.

T.E.A.L.® Walk/Run™ events make a direct impact on our society by addressing this important women’s health issue and demonstrating the power and unity of many individual communities across the United States coming together in the larger fight against ovarian cancer.

  • Over thousands of registered participants have been a part of our T.E.A.L.® Walk/Run™ program with hundreds of teams since 2009.
  • Our T.E.A.L.® Walk/Run™ program has raised over $4 million dollars for Awareness and Research Programs.
