2010 Race Crowds Gallery
The view that tells it all - our Race is the largest 5K fundraising event in the area, demonstrating an extraordinary commitment of our entire community to end breast cancer forever.
An approximate 40,000 registered participants pack the Ben Franklin Parkway, demonstrating - from start to finish - an unbreakable commitment to eradicating breast cancer.
Crowds of thousands, consisting of survivors, sponsors and their special guests, receive VIP treatment from Thriftway & Shop N’ Bag at the Race-morning breakfast.
As the sun rises higher & higher in the May sky, the crowds grow larger & larger in anticipation of the opening ceremonies.
By 7:00 AM, there is not a spare inch to stand as people from the tri-state are and beyond await the climax of a full year of celebrating the milestone 20th Race.
Despite incredible winds, the resourcefulness of our event managers assure that the iconic pink balloons of our Race dot the crowds with the color of hope.
A crowd favorite, no matter what age, the Phillie Phanatic keeps energetic crowds entertained before the Parade of Pink.
