It is great to be able to participate in a community event which raises funds for breast cancer research, and on Mother's Day as well. The Melbourne
Mothers Day Classic was held at
Alexandra Gardens this year with success, and the organisers want to hold this event again in Alexandra Gardens on Sunday the 13 May 2012.
If you wish to participate, you will need to wait until February 2012 when registrations open.The events include the 8km run, 4km run and 4km walk. Pre-event entertainment on the day is also provided, therefore encouraging people to stretch prior to participating in their relevant event. Furthermore the pink finishing medals are so cute, they actually convert into a lanyard and keyring if you prefer. Also there is a tribute wall where you have the opportunity to pay your respects to a loved one who has either survived or is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer, or for someone you know who has sadly passed away from breast cancer.
The goodies bag and refreshments provided are a great bonus to finishing the relevant event you have entered. Yours truly will be participating in this event for the fourth time in 2012.
Pretty in Pink is the flavour of the day on Mother's Day every year. Make sure you have trained adequately prior to the event if you so choose to participate in it.
