Tri for the Cure
August 4, 2012
Cherry Creek State Park-Denver, Colorado
Few experiences engage and impact women on such a personal level as Tri for the Cure, launched in 2004 to provide women with an opportunity to personally accomplish something that at first, seemed beyond their reach. Many of these women (nearly 40%) have never done a triathlon before…many didn’t know how to swim…some hadn’t been on a bicycle since they were kids…for others the thought of a 5K seemed impossible. Yet here they are today, triathletes.
The attraction of Tri for the Cure is so strong, that each year the 3,300 openings sell out. The appeal in not simply limited to the personal challenge of completing a triathlon, but the opportunity to honor mothers, daughters, sisters and friends who have be afflicted with, and many who have survived breast cancer. Even more remarkable, since its inception, Tri for the Cure has generated more than $1 million for the Denver Metropolitan Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, which recognizes this event as a cornerstone fundraiser.
