 The 2nd annual ROCK 'N RUN Think Pink Feel Teal, held on Sunday, October 12, 2014, in Miami, Florida, was created to unite a community in the fight against breast and ovarian cancer and promote awareness to enhance prevention and early detection. The event featured a 5K Orange Theory Fitness Run/Walk and a cardio-blasting dance class with Videosync's Jay Marcos. We are so grateful to Co-Chairs Amy & Harry Hollub, and Meredith & Carlos Wolf, and Student Co-Chairs, Aliya Hollub & Rylee Hollub, and all those who helped raise $10,000 for OCRF. |
