The 60 Mile Walk in Pinellas for Breast Cancer Awareness
In Florida alone, more than 12,000 new breast cancer cases are estimated to be diagnosed in 2009. To help find a cure for the disease, thousands of men and women gathered the last weekend of October to walk 60 miles in three days, and to raise over $4 million for non-profit foundations leading the breast cancer awareness initiative. Since its inception in 2003, more than $400 million has been raised through Breast Cancer 3-Day donations, contributions and sponsorships.
Rinnova Med-Surgical & Laser Institute is still accepting applications for a free breast restoration surgery for a cancer survivor in Tampa Bay. Please help spread the word.
The walkers, many of them breast cancer survivors, started at Sand Key Park in Clearwater on Friday and walked through the Pinellas county communities of Largo, Seminole, Treasure Island and Madeira Beach to cross the finish line in Spa Beach Park in St. Petersburg.
It’s an emotional finish filled with tears.
