Take BCRF’s Virtual Running Challenge to Support Research

By BCRF | January 6, 2025

Make an impact by joining our 28-Mile Run for Research on Facebook this February

Go the distance for breast cancer research! This February, BCRF will host the 28-Mile Run for Research, a free fitness challenge on Facebook that raises funds for lifesaving research. 

BCRF’s 28-Mile Run for Research honors breast cancer survivors and thrivers everywhere. Join us as we come together as a community to get active and make a difference for the one in eight women who will be diagnosed with the disease in their lifetime.

This official BCRF Facebook challenge allows you to participate wherever you live and go at your own pace during the month.

To fuel research, participants are encouraged to start Facebook fundraisers for BCRF with any goal and to ask friends and family to support their challenges. Fundraisers who collect more than $100 in donations will receive a free pair of pink shoelaces.

Get started by joining the challenge Facebook group and finding the “Start Your Challenge Here” post at the top of the page. From there, you’ll be directed to sign up for the challenge and launch a fundraiser.

With each mile you finish and every dollar you raise, you’ll support science that’s saving lives and improving outcomes for everyone impacted by breast cancer. Together, this challenge community will help be the end of breast cancer.
