These events will feature 1-mile recreational or competitive swims, ½-mile recreational swim, 5K or 10K runs, 3-mile walk & a 1-mile USMS sanctioned swim. Cheryl Osimo, MBCC's Executive Director stated, "We are grateful to the many people who continue to support MBCC & we’re so encouraged by how well our virtual events were received by participants both locally & nationally in 2020, 2021 & 2022. In 2023, we hope that providing multiple virtual & in-person event options will give even more people a chance to be a part of the Against the Tide events to swim, walk & run in support of breast cancer prevention." The funds raised through Against the Tide helps to support & expand MBBC’s community education program Let’s Talk Prevention: Reducing Toxic Exposures, MBCC Webinar Series & the newly-expanded student environmental health program, Let’s Talk Prevention: Actions You Can Take.
