A group of 64 people have been training to run/walk the Breast Cancer Awareness 5K which is always held in July in conjunction with the Annie Oakley Festival. This year the event will be held July 27 with registration starting at 7 a.m. and the race starting at 8:30 a.m.
The race begins at the Annie Oakley Statue going through historic downtown Greenville, winding through beautiful Greenville Park, across the swinging bridge and finishing back at the Annie Oakley Statue.
Breast Cancer Kickin' Bootcamp was started 7 years ago by Coy Boroff. It is an 8 week training program designed to prepare anyone who wants to participate in 5K. This year the program was altered to include those who would like to walk a 5K. The "Finish Line" is all the same, whether you are running or walking, you have completed your goal as well as raising awareness for breast cancer.
Come out and join us or just cheer us on from the sidelines. Show your support to those who are battling Breast Cancer and Honor those we have loved and lost.
