2006 5K Walk / Run For the Cure

The MMCF started a new tradition for this second annual event. We offered not only a walk to save lives, but also a 5K run to save lives. The event was held at beautiful Essex Park in Rochester, MN. Tracy McCray from the Tracy McCray Show on KROC-AM did a fantastic job as our emcee. Speakers included Dr. Phillip Greipp from Mayo Clinic, Jennifer Feinberg from Celgene Corporation, and MMCF founder Eve Friedli. Thanks to all who attended, we were able to donate $12,000 to Mayo Clinic for blood cancer research!

Thank you to our fantastic sponsors: Rochester Running Room, Celgene Corporation, Think Federal Credit Union, Advance Chiropractic, Olive Juice Studios, Laser 101.7, KROC-AM, Insty-Prints, First National Bank Plainview, and KTTC TV.

Running room gift certificates ($50 for 1st place, $25 for 2nd place, and $10 for 3rd place) were presented to the top three men and women racers. Congratulations to all of the people that ran and finished the race. To view race results, click here.
