Everyone looks good in pink – especially when it’s all part of a greater mission, not just a fashion choice. The 2nd annual Pink Up the Pace 5K and 1-Mile Dolly Dash Fun Run is the perfect occasion to don your best rose-colored duds and join the race in this fundraiser for breast cancer research. It’s a color run – so even if your clothing doesn’t start out pink, it will end up that way.
