Rev Up Together to Race
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 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.
