    Race for the Cure is tomorrow. Unfortunately, I have patellofemoral stress syndrome still, so I can't actually run it. But hey, an excuse to be pink in public and not have people laugh at me.

    Are any of you all doing these races? Have you done them? Any cancer survivors among you or your family members?

    Aww sucks that you can't run. :frowning2: (*hug*)

    My mom had breast cancer, but she's a survivor. :slight_smile:

    I have been to cancer research fundraising events. ^ ^

    My grandma and aunt both are survivors of cancer, skin and breast, respectively. I've also lost some family members to cancer.

    Atlanta's Race for the Cure was on May 10th.
    I haven't run the race before, but my mom doesn't let me go outside very often...

    I'll be sure to run it once I'm free. I need to do some toning, anyway, so it'll be win-win. :slight_smile:
