Stronger Than Cancer
Welcome to our bi-annual Stronger Than Cancer liftathon. Every semester, we unite with the Kappa Sigma brothers and the Hoboken community to support cancer research through a lifting event. This year's Stronger Than Cancer liftathon is dedicated to Breast Cancer Research. The challenge awaits you in three main events: bench press, deadlift, and squat. Join us at Fitness Factory Hoboken (formerly Retro location) - no membership necessary.
This year, we aimed to achieve something greater than ever before. Presenting Stronger Than Cancer Week, featuring 9 impactful events across 9 days.
Launching the week, we begin with a vibrant start as we team up with Theta Phi Alpha on Friday for a festive balloon twisting event. Sunday invites you to join us for a rejuvenating 1.5-mile health and wellness walk through the scenic landscapes of north Hoboken.
As the week progresses, Monday heats up with a thrilling 5-a-side basketball game to test your skills. Tuesday brings a moment of tranquility with guided yoga and meditation sessions to soothe the mind and enhance well-being.
Midweek, Wednesday promises an exhilarating return with both a supersized can toss game and a gripping bar hang challenge. On Thursday, we revive the renowned Kappa Sigma event, Pie-A-Brother, allowing you to donate and witness your favorite or least favorite brother get a whipped cream pie to the face.
Wrapping up the week, Friday leads us to the main event, the mini Stronger than Cancer fitness challenge, which includes push-ups, pull-ups, and sit-ups. Join us in this incredible week of unity and support!
