From 2010 10 Race for the Cure |
Saturday morning. Up at 6:00 AM. Out of the house at 7. Hitting the pavement at 8 along with 26,000 others for a 5K run/walk/stroll in the neighborhood around Dallas's NorthPark Center. This can describe nothing other than the "Komen Dallas Race for the Cure," in its 28th year of raising funds for and heightening awareness about breast health as well as celebrating breast cancer survivorship. Last year's event raised over $2.5 million for the cause.
The race coordination was superb, the weather beautiful and the participants in a festive mood. To see photos of all the action, look here.
P.S. Can't wake up that early on a Saturday morning? You can still participate in "Sleep In for the Cure."
