The Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC) will be holding its annual, statewide Against the Tide swim, kayak, walk, and/or run fundraising event again in 2015. The morning event consist of several components: competitive and recreational swims, recreational kayak, recreational walk, and competitive and recreational runs. Participants of all ages and abilities can choose 1, 2, or 3 of these exciting activities. The event also offers an Aquathon “Splash and Dash” component, where participants “splash” in the competitive 1-mile swim and immediately “dash” in the competitive 5K or 10K run (chosen by the participant). Participants may register as an individual or as part of a team, and are encouraged to fundraise $175 ($100, if a team member). All proceeds support the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition.
The statewide Cape Cod Against the Tide will be held for the 16th year at DCR’s Nickerson State Park on Saturday, August 15th. This event starts at 7:00am and ends at 12:00 noon. Please visit http://www.mbcc.org/swim or call 617-376-MBCC (6222) for more information and to register.
