Hundreds Join Sold-Out Run for a Cure Event

MANSFIELD, TEX. – Texas Health Hospital Mansfield, in partnership with the YMCA, hosted a sold-out Run for a Cure 5K to kick off Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October with an outpouring of community support.

The event took place at the Texas Health Hospital Mansfield Professional Building, welcoming more than 600 participants. Local fire, EMS and police departments, along with city officials and community partners, stood together with the participants in the united fight against breast cancer.

“This event is more than a race—it’s a powerful expression of hope, unity and purpose,” said Eulanie Lashley, president and CEO of Texas Health Hospital Mansfield. “With more than 300,000 women and 3,000 men projected to be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, it’s critical that we come together to raise awareness, encourage early detection and support those on their cancer journey. We are honored to stand with the YMCA and our community as we continue extending the healing ministry of Christ well beyond the walls of our hospital.”

The Run for a Cure 5K served as a symbol of the strength and resilience in the community. From participants and volunteers to first responders and local leaders, the participants demonstrated a shared commitment to making a difference in the lives of those affected by breast cancer.
