While many around the state and country paused today to remember the lives lost 10 years ago today in New York City, Shanksville Pennsylvania, and Washington DC, many other walked and ran to remember lives lost and lives saved in the Susan G. Komen, Race for the Cure today in the Garden of the Gods park.

Survivors, families and those who came to remember those who lost in the battle against Breast Cancer turned out in droves to raise money and awareness to find a cure for a disease that strikes women and men alike.

A memorial balloon launch remembered those lost and the run and walk brought attention to those still fighting the battle for life.
