Organizers of the Avera Race Against Cancer wanted this year to be the biggest one yet, and they surpassed last year’s participation numbers with a 6,400 combined runners and walkers taking part. Eight of those participants were members of the Dakota News Now team.
The Avera Race Against Cancer is taking place Saturday morning. Whether you’re participating or supporting a runner, post your race photos here, and we may feature them in our broadcast.
Some of the money raised goes to the Avera Cancer Institute Navigation Center, and manager Christina Early talks about what the center does to support patients and their families.
