Springtime may be a few more weeks away, but the Pittsburgh Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® is already hard at work preparing for this year's Race for the Cure.
The event is scheduled for May 8 -- Mother's Day -- on Flagstaff Hill in Oakland's Schenley Park. Register now at http://www.komenpittsburgh.org.
After participants have registered, a personal, customizable fundraising page will be created for each individual. Participants can use the page to collect pledges for the fight against breast cancer and invite others to join their race day team.
