About the Event

Join the Tufts Medical community for the second annual run/walk at Pine Banks Park in Melrose, MA to kick off breast cancer awareness month! Every year, approx 1 in 8 women in the US will be diagnosed with breast cancer, making it one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide. At Tufts Medical Center, we are committed to providing the most innovative care to those patients facing this diagnosis. This race aims to raise awareness and show support to the patients, family and friends that have been impacted by breast cancer.
