ABOUT THE RACE

This event is dedicated to my Aunt Joan who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2008. She is a great inspiration to all that know her...she always has a smile on her face and a great attitude towards life no matter what hand she has been dealt. Click on "Joan's Story" to read more about her journey.

All proceeds from this event will be used to fund research, support public awareness and help people recognize early signs and symptoms of this silent but Chasing the cure for ovarian cancerdeadly disease. We have partnered with Gynecologic Oncology Group, a national, non-profit organization dedicated to research and clinical trials specifically for women's pelvic malignancies. Find out more about GOG by clicking on the "Charities" link or go to www.gog.org.

Taking part in one of our events for Chasing the Cure is your opportunity to do something very meaningful and have lots of fun. Help us battle ovarian cancer and capture the spirit of women we know and love who are fighting for their lives. For our inaugural race in 2010, we were able to donate $8,000 to GOG! Come jog with Joan and join the fight to cure ovarian cancer...one step at a time!
