Three days. 60 miles. The Susan G. Komen 3‑Day® journey is a life-changing national event that is coming to Dallas/Ft. Worth this November to raise money to end breast cancer. Each walker raises $2,300 in donations. The final grand total is $800,000,000 and counting.
The Komen 3-day journey starts with an inspiring Opening Ceremony at Collin Creek Mall in Plano. Then, the trail leads through beautiful neighborhoods and city parks, trailing southward. There are two nights in the Komen 3-Day camp, a perfect opportunity to bond with other fellow walkers, and a final Closing Ceremony when you reach the finish line at Fair Park in Dallas.
With members of the community rallying to support participants from across the Metroplex, this isn’t a race. Everyone crosses the finish line together. It’s a 3-Day anthem of solidarity and victory against breast cancer.
