ABOUT THE JACK ROTH ROCK N' RUN
The momentum surrounding the Rock’n’Run has been truly remarkable, rapidly growing in both support and participation. As we have seen over the past four years, the race has become a highly anticipated event for families and friends in Columbus, Ohio, and beyond, providing an opportunity for everyone to come together to honor Jack and contribute to some of the things that were dearest to him. To date we have raised more than $300,000 for lung cancer research at the Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard Solove Research Center at The Ohio State University and Camp Netaim, a camp for children with special needs in Israel.
