On Saturday July 20, I will be hosting a 5k run/walk to help raise money and awareness for a cancerous disease called Multiple Myeloma. My mother died of Multiple Myeloma and so that is why I have chosen to name this event in her honor--the Patricia Kathleen 5k Run. Multiple Myeloma is a blood cancer that is currently incurable. Research is clearly needed to better understand this disease. By participating in this 5k run/walk, you can help fund just such research. The event costs $20 for adults and $10 for those under 18. All funds raised will go to the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF). The event will be Saturday July 20th at Whiteaker Middle School. Registration starts at 8:30am and the race will begin at 9am. The event will be 5km (6 laps). Volunteers are also needed for running stop watches and giving out numbers.
