The Pink Ribbon Running Club ^TM was started on May 10th, 1998. On that day, Judy Pickett ran her first Race For The Cure in Sacramento, California, and her mission to run 100 races benefiting breast cancer was born. Since then, she has run 127 races for breast cancer, had two recurrences, two additional surgeries, four more months of chemo, three broken toes, Achilles tendonitis, torn meniscus'  in both knees, and through it all , she has only spent one night in the hospital! To date Judy has run with over 2 million people and 115,000 breast cancer survivors!

Upcoming Boston Marathon!!    On April 20, 2009 Judy will run her first Boston Marathon.  She qualified at the National Marathon to Fight Breast Cancer in Jacksonville, FL, in Feburary 2008.  Judy finished first in the survivor divison, running a respectable time of 4:00.09.  This year, for the first time the Susan G. Komen Foundation has teamed up with the Boston Marathon and created Marathon for the Cure - Boston.  I am honored to be a part of this crusade and have pledged to help raise funds for the SGK Foundation.  If you are interested in donating to my race, please visit my page at www.activa.com/donate/komenbostonmarathon/JPickett14.

 Thank you for helping to make a difference in this fight!  Together we can eliminate this disease once and for all!
