From

Wake up early on Saturday, April 30 and join more than 40,000 men, women, children and families in Times Square to kick off the 2011 Revlon Run/Walk for Women.

This powerful and widely-celebrated 5K (3.1 mile) run/walk through Midtown and Central Park supports research and treatment for cancers that afflict women and their loved ones every day.

Since 1993, the Revlon Run/Walk has developed into one of the nation’s largest fundraising programs. Thus far, the event has raised and allocated tens of millions of dollars to support the development of cancer treatments, outreach programs, and counseling efforts.

This year, celebrity hosts include Nate Berkus, Jimmy Fallon, Dr. Oz, and Keyshia Cole. They will join committed volunteers, cancer survivors and their families, friends and supporters for the 2011 New York City Revlon Run/Walk for Women. You can still register to run or walk online, so check out the information and links below if you want to be a part of this phenomenal event.
