The event, presented by the Massachusetts Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, was the culmination of Komen MA’s activities during October which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Race is a 5K fitness walk/run dedicated to raising dollars to support local breast health programs that cover education, prevention, screening, and treatment while also funding the most promising research on a national level.
