Wikipedia Description: Race for the Cure
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure is a series of 5K runs/fitness walks that raises significant funds and awareness for the fight against breast cancer, celebrates breast cancer survivorship and honors those who have lost their battle with the disease.
About the Race:
Each race is a five kilometer run/walk (5k) for people of all ages and fitness levels. All courses are certified by USA Track and Field (USATF), the national governing body for track and field, long distance running, race walking and cross-country events.
Since its origination by Nancy Brinker, founder of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, in 1983, the event has grown from one local race in Dallas, Texas with 800 participants to a global series of nearly 120 Races with more than 1.5 million people expected to participate in 2007 including races in Germany, Italy and Puerto Rico.
Breast Cancer Survivor Recognition Program:
The National Breast Cancer Survivor Recognition Program celebrates breast cancer survivors. At each Race event, breast cancer survivors (both men and women) who choose to be recognized wear complimentary pink hats and t-shirts. Moreover, participants are encouraged to wear “In Memory of” and “In Celebration of” back signs, honoring loved ones for their strength and courage.
Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

1999 photos: Since 1984, I've lived in Silver Spring, Maryland.
From 1981 to 2002, photos were taken using a Pentax ME Super camera.
From 1989 to 2002, I was doing all pictures as prints (instead of slides which I had grown up on).
In 1997, at the age of 40, my photo obsession began and I started taking thousands of photos per year.
In September, 2002, I switched to digital cameras and the number of photos exploded.
Image quality is going to be variable because these are scans of slides and/or prints.
The images shown here were scanned in two phases. In the early years of the website, I rescanned a selection of pre-digital images, all at fairly low quality settings. During the COVID pandemic, I launched the Great Rescanning Effort, rescanning ALL of my pre-digital images from various media (prints, slides, negatives, etc) at higher resolution and quality settings. Mutilple versions of images -- some from the initial scannning phase, some from prints, some from slides/negatives -- were posted so there are frequently duplicate images on the same page. At some point, I hope to have time to do a final review and get rid of the duplicates but that'll have to wait until all of the pre-digital images are finally posted.
Trips this year: A week at a timeshare in Gordonsville, VA, two weeks in Tennessee, which included attending my first Fan Fair country music festival, and family visits to North Carolina and Florida.
