The Dallas/Fort Worth 3-Day Event Experience

PACKING & PREPARING

Your gear bag should weigh no more than 35 pounds. Easily toted bags with wheels are the best choice.
For 1-Day Walkers: You will be carrying all of your belongings with you while walking. We recommend a waist pack or something that evenly distributes the weight, so as not to disrupt your walking stride.

Please avoid bringing any valuables with you. The 3-Day assumes no liability for the replacement of lost items. Mark your bag clearly with your name and Participant ID number (Log in to see your ID number.).

You must bring your own water bottle. We will provide water and sports drink in large dispensers on the route and in small mixing packs at the hotel, not in individual bottles.

The following items should be carried with you while you’re on the route:

• Water bottle—wide-mouth bottles will be easier to refill
• Identification, including your event credential
• Money, credit card, medical insurance card
• Socks (to change into a fresh pair at the lunch stop)
• Sunscreen and lip balm
• Sunglasses
• Bandana
• Rain poncho
• Small First Aid kit
• Wet wipes for hand washing along the route
• Insect repellent
• Snacks if you have special medical or dietary needs

Do Not Bring:

• Donations
• Valuables

HOTEL RESERVATIONS

When you check in to the hotel, you will need to provide a credit or debit card for incidentals. A hold for $50 per day will be placed on your card (if it is a debit card, the $50/day will be removed from your account). If you do not charge incidentals to your room, the $50/day charge or hold will be refunded 7-10 days after you check out.

3-Day Walkers and Crew: If it says “Roommate Status: Assigned” in the Online Check-In section of your Participant Center, then your Friday and Saturday night room is confirmed. You will not be getting a confirmation email from the hotel for Friday or Saturday night, because the 3-Day is managing those reservations.

2-Day Walkers: If it says “Roommate Status: Assigned” in the Online Check-In section of your Participant Center, then your Saturday night room is confirmed. You will not be getting a confirmation email from the hotel for Saturday night, because the 3-Day is managing those reservations.

DAY ONE: FRIDAY

The Susan G. Komen 3-Day^® begins early Friday morning with the Opening Ceremony. It’s a moment to remember what brought us here—to recall the loved ones lost and the lives to be saved.

Here’s the play-by-play of how the day will go.

• If you are not staying at the Dallas Hyatt Regency on Thursday night, plan to arrive there by 6:30 a.m. on Friday morning to drop your gear off.
• Crew members: Check with your captain for your arrival time and location. Crew members will be reporting to either the vehicle lot or the hotel, based on Friday morning responsibilities. We will have gear trucks available at the Vehicle lot and Opening Ceremony to collect crew member luggage.
• There will be snacks at the first pit stop but not a full meal, so eat breakfast before you arrive.
• We do not accept donations on the event, so mail any donations you have collected before you leave for the event or use the mobile deposit feature of the Komen 3-Day app.
• The opening pre-show will start at 6:45 a.m. and the Opening Ceremony will begin promptly at 7:00 a.m.
• We will not have computers or printers on site for participant use. So, if you do not have your event credential when you arrive, go to the late check-in help desk, which will be open from 6:00 a.m. – 7:00 a.m. You will receive a temporary credential until you get to camp on Friday afternoon/evening.
• Take a moment to write the names of the loved ones you have lost to breast cancer on the white promise flag.
• If you are walking by yourself and want to meet up with other solo walkers, meet near the Solo Walker flag.

After the Opening Ceremony is over, you’ll walk onto the route. Remember—the Komen 3-Day isn’t a race. So, it’s not about getting to a finish line first. Once you have completed Day 1, if you haven’t already, you can retrieve your luggage and check in to the hotel (4:00 p.m. or later).

2-DAY WALKERS

You will need to check in at the at the Dallas Hyatt Regency to receive your 3-Day credential, lanyard and legacy pin. You can check in between 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. on Friday or on Saturday morning between 6:15 a.m. – 7:00 a.m.

On Saturday, breakfast will be served between 5:30 a.m. – 7:30 a.m. Buses will depart for the route at 6:30 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. and camp closes at 7:30 a.m.

1-DAY WALKERS

You will need to check in at the at the Dallas Hyatt Regency to receive your 3-Day credential, lanyard and legacy pin. You can check in between 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. on Saturday or on Sunday morning between 7:00 a.m. – 8:00 a.m.

On Saturday night at the 3-Day, we hold a special ceremony to honor and celebrate the people who we are walking for. We invite you to attend this moving, inspiring ceremony—you won’t want to miss it. It’s a wonderful way to start your 3-Day journey and will give you a chance to be with the rest of the 3-Day community. The Honor Ceremony starts at 6:30 p.m. If you’d like to attend the Honor Ceremony, please check in at the host hotel between 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. on Saturday. Dinner is served between 4:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.

If you didn’t check in on Saturday, arrive at the Dallas Hyatt Regency on Sunday between 7:00 a.m. – 8:00 a.m. to check in.

On Sunday breakfast will be served between 6:00 a.m. – 8:00 a.m. The route will open at 7:50 a.m. and all walkers must be on the route by 8:00 a.m.

Parking
We recommend booking convenient and affordable parking in advance through SpotHero, the nation's leading parking reservations app. To reserve your parking spot for the Susan G. Komen Dallas/Fort Worth 3-Day Opening Ceremony, visit the Hyatt Regency Dallas SpotHero Parking Page.

The Route

The day’s mileage will vary, from 16 to 20 miles. You should aim for a pace of about 3 mph, spending approximately 10-15 minutes at each pit stop and 30 minutes at the lunch stop.

Every 3-5 miles along the route, you will have an opportunity to stop, stretch, use a portable toilet, grab a snack and refill your water bottle. The Medical Crew will be available at pit stops to help you with any medical problems. A grab & go is a smaller pit stop, which has toilets and drinks only. The midday pit stop will be your lunch stop. You can rest, relax, eat a healthy bag lunch that we provide and visit the Medical Crew, if necessary.

Pit stops will have designated operating hours, scheduled to correspond with how you’ll be moving along the route. If you reach a pit stop before it opens, you will be asked to stop and wait. If you reach a pit stop after it closes, you will be transported to the lunch stop (or camp, if you have already passed the lunch stop). This is to keep everyone moving along the route at a pace that ensures traffic support and sweep vans are available and ready to assist if needed.

Remember, it’s not a race. If your pace has slowed to the point where you are not making it to the pit stops before they close, you will be transported to lunch or camp (depending on the time of day) for your own safety. We don’t want to leave anyone on the route after crew support and signage have been removed.

There will be a staff member on a bicycle (who we lovingly call the “caboose”) at the back of the pack making sure that no one gets left behind or ends up on the route after it has closed.

The route is well marked with pink arrows and instructional signage so all you need to do is follow the signs and the walkers in front of you!

The route will close at 5:30 p.m. each day, other conditions permitting. Exact mileage per day varies according to a number of factors. The amount of daylight hours also impacts the total event mileage as it dictates the amount of time the route can be kept open safely.

Here’s a general description of what you will experience along the way. Print a map here.

Friday: Approximately 19.9 miles
The Dallas/Fort Worth 3-Day will begin with an emotional Opening Ceremony. The day's route will head through downtown Dallas eastbound toward White Rock Lake and back. The morning route will include a walk through historical neighborhoods before strolling down White Rock Lake for lunch. After lunch, the route will take the walkers through a trail walk before heading back in to town through Deep Ellum and downtown, before we head back to the Dallas Hyatt Regency, our home away from home for the weekend.

Saturday: Approximately 18.7 miles
Day two will begin with a bus ride to the neighboring city of Fort Worth. The route will showcase multiple neighborhoods including Arlington Heights, the Cultural District, Sundance Square, and Fairmont-Southside Historic District. Participants will enjoy a stroll through the streets of the TCU campus before heading back to the east side of Fort Worth. The route will finish through the Elizabeth Blvd Historic Neighborhood before a bus ride back to the Dallas Hyatt Regency for another evening of community, camaraderie and fun.

Sunday: Approximately 16.2 miles
Sunday's route will showcase the suburban areas of Dallas, winding north through Turtle Creek and Highland Park. Walkers will be able to see the museum district as well. The route will lastly showcase the AT&T Discovery District with is blend of art and technology. Please be mindful of our neighbors when walking through residential areas. The day will culminate with a picturesque Closing Ceremony on Reunion Lawn. 

View a map of the route.

Please be courteous and follow instructions of crew and staff at all times. They are here to make sure you have a safe and enjoyable experience. Abusive behavior will not be tolerated under any circumstances.

Friday/Saturday Gear Drop
If you have any gear, such as raincoats or heavy jackets, that you feel like you don’t need after your morning walk, you can drop at the second pit stop of the day and we will bring it to the hotel for you. Pick it up at the pink Info room at the hotel after 12:00 p.m. the same day.

Sweep Vans

If you get injured, or are too exhausted to finish the day’s mileage, one of our “sweep vans” can pick you up along the route and take you to the next pit stop, where you can get medical attention, if you need it. All you need to do is raise your arms over your head in an “X” to stop a sweep van when you see one approaching on the route. If you are still unable to walk after seeing our Medical Crew, a Lunch & Camp Shuttle will take you to camp.

There will also be sweep vans staged at each pit stop (not grab & go stops) which can take you directly to the next stop. Based on the time of day, some of these vans may be going directly to lunch or to camp. Just ask them before you hop in!

As the day comes to a close, sweep vans will pick up any walkers who have fallen far behind and take them forward to the next stop, so that they arrive before that stop closes. This ensures that all walkers make it to camp before dark.

MEALS AND SNACKS

At each pit stop there will be an assortment of snacks including clementines, bananas, potato chips, carrots, peanuts, pretzels and more (as supplies last). To drink, there will be water and sports drink provided. You must bring your own water bottle to fill. About halfway through each day’s mileage, you will have a nutritious lunch.

Hot breakfast and coffee will be served at the host hotel on Saturday and Sunday mornings, and a hot dinner will be served on Friday and Saturday evening.

You must show your 3-Day credential to receive all meals and services. If you prefer a vegetarian meal, please update your profile on The3Day.org, and then let us know when you select your meal on the event. (If you have other special dietary needs, call your coach in advance at 800-996-3DAY or email dfwcoaches@the3day.org so we can discuss your options.)

CHEERING STATIONS

Please discourage your family and friends from driving along the route, as it can create a safety hazard. Instead, encourage them to show their support at a Cheering Station. The following Cheering Stations are safe, recommended places for your supporters to cheer you on along the route.

Hotel Camp

The 3-Day camp experience will take place entirely in the Dallas Hyatt Regency. Informational booths, massage chairs, a Komen 3-Day gift shop, medical services, meals and all of the ceremonies, celebrations and opportunities to mix & mingle will be hosted at the hotel. There will be activities throughout the weekend, so please pay attention to the signs and announcements informing you of the schedule of activities.

On Friday, Main Street opens at 1:00 p.m. and all camp services (except dinner) are available from 1:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Dinner is served from 4:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. Friday evening we will host the Celebration of Champions at 6:30 p.m.

Bank of America Celebration of Champion Awards

You could win fundraising dollars, courtesy of Bank of America! We will be holding a Celebration of Champions in the Dining Area on Friday evening and awarding several participants with donations towards their 2025 3-Day fundraising, courtesy of Bank of America.

Top individual and team fundraisers will be rewarded with donations of up to $500, and five lucky participants at each 3-Day event will win a $250 donation through the Champion Celebration Raffle Sponsored by Bank of America. All participants who have completed online check-in by Sunday, October 27, will be entered into the raffle. Top fundraising individuals and team captains who are already being awarded a donation of $200 or more are ineligible to win the raffle.

You must be present at the raffle to win, so don’t miss the Celebration of Champions! All details of individual and team fundraising rewards and the raffle are posted on our Fundraising Rewards webpage.

Kindness Rocks

One of the great things about the 3-Day is the spirit of kindness that we create for three days while on the event. It’s like living in a pink bubble—the way we wish the world would be. It’s a world where every walker, from the first to the last, gets a cheer as they enter camp. Where a stranger may help you carry your bag. Where a long line becomes another opportunity to make a great new friend. One of the most popular phrases around the 3-Day is “No whining!” So carry on that legacy of kindness. Be kind, smile, and lend a hand when you see someone who needs it.

Finish Line Festival

If you are not staying at the host hotel on Sunday evening, pack your bag in the morning and load it on the gear truck, which will be located right outside the hotel before you begin the final day. The crew will transport your gear to the Finish Line Festival for you while you’re walking.

At the end of our three days and 60 miles together, all participants will gather in the Finish Line Festival Area to grab a snack or drink and rest up before celebrating the end of our journey together. If you haven’t made it to the Finish Line Festival Area in time, we will pick you up and transport you, so you won’t miss the final victory celebration at the Closing Ceremony.

The Closing Ceremony is a joyous celebration of your accomplishment and your friends and family won’t want to miss it! It’s a remarkable, moving experience—one that’s difficult to put into words.

The Finish Line Festival will open to participants and spectators at 12:00 p.m. The Closing Ceremony will begin at 4:00 p.m.

ALCOHOL RESTRICTIONS

The 3-Day and all of the cities we travel through work together to help create a safe and enjoyable experience for 3-Day participants and supporters. As the 3-Day route is on public property, it is subject to local laws. Local jurisdictions will be enforcing open-liquor laws in neighborhoods along the route. The safety of our participants is our number one priority.

Safety

Our first priority is always a safe event. Walking in a group is different than walking alone—you must be particularly aware of your movement and behavior to ensure that you are not endangering yourself or others.

Please observe the following safety policies on the event and on all of your training walks:

• Use caution when walking near vehicles. While we clear an appropriate walking path for you, the road is not closed to traffic during the 3-Day.
• Cooperate with 3-Day officials at all times, including staff members, volunteers and crew members.
• Local law enforcement will also have a presence on the event — so please obey their instructions and signals. We’ve been given very special permission to be on these sites and along these roads. Treat local officials with extra respect so that we’ll be welcomed back in the future!
• Walkers are not permitted to wear headphones or use mobile phones or texting devices while walking. It is extremely unsafe. If you need to use your phone, stop and step to the side first. And please don’t use your phone’s speaker to play music or make calls while walking.
• Participants in the 3-Day are not to engage in any activity that is in violation of any criminal or statutory law, including traffic laws.
• Local jurisdictions will be enforcing open-liquor laws in neighborhoods along the route and in camp. The safety of our participants is our number one priority and the consumption of alcohol at any time during the 3-Day is not recommended and could damage the 3-Day’s relationship with local law enforcement officials.
• All walkers must stay on the official 3-Day route.
• When passing other walkers, please say “On your left” so they can move to the side and you can safely pass.
• Unsafe behavior is cause for immediate expulsion from the 3-Day. If you are expelled, you will be responsible for your own transportation home.
• No children under 16 (including babies in strollers) are allowed on the event route.
• The 3-Day utilizes city and school properties for our pit stops and other official locations. As such, all participants, vendors, and staff must abide by the regulations set at these institutions including smoking, alcohol and firearm free zones.

Weather

Whatever the weather, the 3-Day generally continues. So please be prepared for walking and camping in inclement weather. If the weather gets too severe, we always have a back-up plan for evacuating and relocating to make sure that everyone is housed safely.

We will make every effort to hold the 3-Day events at the times, dates and locations specified. However, Susan G. Komen® holds the right to cancel or change the date or location of any 3-Day event, in its sole discretion, due to circumstances that may compromise the health or safety of the participants, including without limitation, unusually severe or extreme weather, fire, natural disaster, epidemic or riot. In the event that a 3-Day event is cancelled or changed, we will take active steps to inform registered participants of such cancellation or change as soon as possible by email and/or text message, posting announcements online in the Participant Center at The3Day.org and on our social media channels.

All registration fees and donations submitted to the 3-Day are non-transferable and non-refundable, even if the event is cancelled or changed. That means that once a donation is posted to a participant’s account it cannot be moved to another participant’s account for any reason, regardless of whether or not you’re able to participate in the event. Your donations will go directly to the cause, and we hope your donors will appreciate supporting Komen regardless of the cancellation or modification of the event.

Medical Emergencies

As with any emergency, call 911 first, if possible. Then, immediately report any medical emergencies to 3-Day staff (the 3-Day event hotline phone number will be clearly marked on your credential). We have a full crew of volunteer medical professionals along the route and at camp to assist you as well as access to local emergency facilities for more serious injuries.
