Becky Olson: Race For The Cure Brings Hope To Breast Cancer Survivors

Last weekend I spent the entire time with breast cancer survivors at the Race for the Cure in Portland, OR. We have one of the largest races in the country with over 45,000 participants. The sea of pink was beautiful and the faces of those personally touched by breast cancer were beautiful.

The Race for the Cure is more than a way to raise awareness and money for breast cancer. It is a way to pay tribute to those fighting this deadly disease and for those in the fight to honor those who support them through their journey. But even more, it is about hope.
