ANNUAL
Breast Cancer Run
February 27
For more information

In 2005 (the most recent year that CDC statistics were available) 186,467
women were diagnosed with breast cancer, and 41,116 women died from the dis-
ease. Except for skin cancer, breast cancer is the most
common cancer among American women. In North
Carolina, the disease is leaving its mark as well.
According to the Carolina Breast Cancer Study,
every year in North Carolina approximately 5,500
women are diagnosed with invasive breast can-
cer.
Although the number of new cases remains
high in our state, advances in research are lead-
ing to improvements in both incidence rates and
long-term survival. Nearly 90% of women are liv-
ing five or more years after diagnosis, and 80% are
living 10 or more years.
Here in Fayetteville, motorcyclists are doing their part
to help breast cancer patients become survivors. The 12th annual Breast Cancer
Run at Legend's Pub will be held on Saturday, Feb. 27. Last year, the event raised
over $5,000 to benefit a local patient battling breast cancer.
"Big or small, we save them all" is the theme of the run this year, according to
Holly Whitley at Legends Pub. The first bike heads out at noon, with a fee of $10
per person to participate. After the ride, the party continues back at Legends Pub,
4624 Bragg Blvd., with an auction, food and door prizes.
For more information on the event, contact Legends Pub at
(910) 867-2364.
