Race For the Cure
To the Komen Foundation Web Site
  • Race for the Cure was conceived and implemented in 1982 by the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation to raise funds for breast cancer awareness, education, research, and early detection. It is the largest series of 5K and 1 mile run/fitness walks in the world with more than 1.3 million participants.

Peoria Komen
Foundation
  • Although October is nationally recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the local Peoria Area Race for the Cure is held annually on the Saturday before Mother's Day. Seventy-five percent of all Peoria Race for the Cure dollars stay in Central Illinois for local and outlying area disbursement. The remaining twenty-five percent funds the research and grants of the Komen Foundation. This unique all women's race draws support from thousands of participants, volunteers, and sponsors.
  • The RE/MAX network is proud to be a major co-sponsor of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. While attending the race you will notice the RE/MAX presence!
  • Jim Sipp places pink ribbons along the race route in support of the efforts of the runners, walkers, and volunteers of Race for the Cure - be sure to watch for them!
