Rev Up Together to Race
      - Race for the Cure preparation

register here Are you :

  • Fatigued from treatment?
  • Feeling fitness slip away?
  • Feeling stress building?
  • Ready to do something for your wellness?

The Race for the Cure is an incredible, inspiring event. But it can seem like an overwhelming task for a woman, newly diagnosed with breast cancer, to get there and walk or run even the one-mile distance, let alone the 5K.

This FREE five-week program is here to help you get to the Race for the Cure this year and tackle either the one-mile or 5K course, or simply enjoy the survivors parade.
