Lifting Hearts 5K - October 20, 2012

I wanted to take a moment to share with everyone an event that another Utah breast cancer support group (Lifting Hearts) is doing. They are hosting a 5k race at Heritage Park in Cedar Hills, UT to raise funds for their support group. Kara, the President of Lifting Hearts, has told me that survivors can run for FREE in this race! Walgreens will be there doing flu shots and in addition food and goods vendors will be there making this a nice family event. If anyone is interested in participating in this you need to register at: http://www.wedidbreastcancer.com (Even if you're a survivor you still need to register for the event.)


Check out the attached flyer - hope to see some YSS there representing!
