Event Description
Due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 19th Annual Sister to Sister Fitness Festival will take place virtually on Oct. 3, 2020 at 8:46 AM.
Normally held as an in-person race at the Alan E. Sims Cedar Hill Recreation Center this year's move to a virtual event will allow participants to run or walk anywhere. This race is hosted by the Celebrating Life Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. This organization’s mission is to making breast cancer powerless by educating, encouraging, and empowering those most impacted by the disease.
Our theme is "We’re in this Together." Studies have shown that walking can help you maintain a healthy body weight. For women, walking lowers hormone levels that increase the risk for breast and endometrial cancers.
You can walk in the park, in the community or at home. You can walk alone or with friends. We will all be uniting wherever we are to walk for a purpose on Oct. 3, 2020 at 8:46 AM. (The race time honors the memory of George Floyd.) We encourage you to practice social distancing as you get your fitness on! Please take pictures and post them on your social media site with the hashtag #sistertosister2020.
