Melanoma Know More: Events

Flying Pig Marathon
For the past two years, Dick Haglage has done the unthinkable. He joined the Miles That Matter Training Program and ran 26.2 miles in the Flying Pig Marathon. Dick ran in memory of his brother Walt, who lost his battle with melanoma in 2007. When Dick goes to the starting line once again this year, he would like to have others join him.

If you are thinking about running in the Flying Pig marathon, please consider joining Dick and Miles That Matter. You can walk or run a 5k, 10k, relay, half-marathon or full marathon and raise money for Melanoma Know More! Sign-up for a training program through Miles That Matter. No matter you age, fitness level or time constraints, Miles that Matter has a training program for you. All abilities welcome. For more information, please contact Karen Cosgrove at Karen@milesthatmatter.com or visit www.milesthatmatter.com.

If you are running on your own, donations can be mailed directly to Melanoma Know More. Please contact info@melanomaknowmore.com for more information.

Be sure to stop by the Melanoma Know More booth at the Flying Pig Expo!
