2018 Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure®
January 27, 2018 @ 6:30 am - 12:30 pm
The date has been set and on Saturday, January 27, 2018, downtown West Palm Beach will once again be awash with pink. The 2018 Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure® will welcome thousands of breast cancer supporters, survivors, and their loved ones to join together at the Meyer Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach for the twenty-seventh annual Susan G. Komen South Florida Race for the Cure.
Runners, walkers, corporate and community teams, and individuals of all ages are welcome to join the celebration that is so much more than a 5K, and show why they are committed to be More Than Pink™, a movement that highlights the people who act, donate, and get involved to help Komen achieve its Bold Goal to reduce the nation’s 40,000 cancer deaths by 50 percent by 2026.
The Race for the Cure® is one of the largest movements across the country and raises significant funds and awareness for the fight against breast cancer. The event celebrates breast cancer survivorship and honors those who have lost their battle with the disease.
