It's Almost Here!!



In less than 1 week, we’ll be celebrating Mother’s Day at the famous Amgen Tour.  As I blogged previously, there is a wonderful component to the day, the Breakaway from Cancer Mile. I am so honored that I will be representing all of the cancer warriors at this exciting event.

Next Sunday, May 11 the Breakaway Mile will take place in Sacramento prior to the conclusion of the race on the professional stage of the Amgen Tour of California. 

The event opens at 9:30am at the Breakaway from Cancer Hospitality tent. In addition to the Breakaway Mile, there will be many festivities in Sacramento throughout the day, including the Lifestyle Festival which beings at 9:30 a.m. The race begins at 10:50 a.m. and is expected to finish around 3:45 p.m.  The Breakaway Mile will take place at 2:00 p.m. where I’ll be speaking.  All participants must check-in at the hospitality tent by 1:30 p.m. 

By participating in this event, you will get to attend all of the events (including a special viewing area for the Amgen Tour finish).  Amgen is pleased to invite you as its guest to view the professional race from this private viewing area, complete with food and refreshments.

The Breakaway Mile walk will follow a short route that starts and ends at the finish line. 

Pat, the girls and I would so love to have friends and family join us for this very special day honoring those who are currently battling cancer, the survivors and the phenomenal caregivers. For those of you who don’t know us, but read my blog – I’d love you to come, too!



Don’t hesitate – just come!
