For the month of October, Snap Fitness of El Dorado Hills has a new opportunity for runners to raise money to fight breast cancer by using their newly installed PINK 625T treadmill from Cybex. For every mile logged, money will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.Snap Fitness has set a goal to log 3,000 miles and raise at least $3,000 dollars during the month-long event. Community members are invited to come in and participate in the effort whether they are a club member or not. Running is not a requirement; walkers are equally welcome! Each participant will receive a pink-related token to acknowledge their efforts in meeting the goals and saving lives.
Statistically, every 13 minutes a woman dies from breast cancer, however, if it is detected in its
early stages, the 5-year survival rate is greater than 95%. Most are not aware that it is a
condition that strikes both men and women. In 2009, a local EDH resident and Snap
Fitness/EDH member died from breast cancer – and he was only 52.
But that's not all. They are also hosting several fundraising and awareness events for October too. So mark these dates on your calendar!
The month kicks-off with a ‘3K Lunch Launch’ on Saturday, October 1, from 11:30 a.m-1:30 p.m. This free event will supply attendees with food, information, and the opportunity to sign-up as a participating team member.
And for those who love a little latin dancing, two “Party in Pink” Zumbathons will be held on Sunday, September 25 from 2-4 p.m., and Saturday, October 15 from 7-9 p.m. One hundred percent of the $10 per person entry fee will be donated to the cause.
We hope everyone will get out to Snap and log those miles!
