Overall Results
An estimated 120,000 people overall attended our Race on May 9, 2010 with approximately 34,700 registered participants packing the Parkway as runners or walkers. In addition, more than 1,170 Race Teams registered this year, raising over $900,000 to date ... all three of these stats making this the biggest event in the 20-year history of the Susan G. Komen Philadelphia Race for the Cure!
With fundraising for the 2010 Race continuing until July 31, we hope to have official fundraising totals to share by mid-August. However, as of June 1, 2010 fundraising received to date was slightly higher than fundraising received by June 1 of last year.
So, we encourage everyone to help us make that final push from now until July 31 by donating to the Race, Race Team or Race participant.
