Tulsa's Race For The Cure, Important For Breast Cancer Survivors

Tulsa's Race For The Cure, Important For Breast Cancer Survivors

Since early August, I've shared several stories of courage and challenges for women who were diagnosed with breast cancer.

News On 6 photojournalist Sam Garforth in the video above gives us a little different perspective of the lives touched by this disease, as we get ready to Race for the Cure at ONEOK Field Saturday, September 26 in downtown Tulsa.

And it is not to late to get involved either to race, donate or volunteer. You can go to NewsOn6.com/LeAnne's team to find out more information.

And be sure and tune in to a special 6 In The Morning edition Saturday starting at 7 a.m. for coverage of Race For The Cure.
