Pounding The Pavement For Pink
In 2012, Seymour Tradition - a nonprofit organization in our town, whose focus is on teaching young girls the values of sportsmanship teamwork and discipline, asked Seymour Pink, Inc. if we would co-host a 5K race. Seymour Pink was so excited about the offer to partner up with this fine organization. The 5K race Pounding the Pavement for Pink was born! In our first year, both of these non-profit organizations realized a total of $24,000. These monies have helped both Seymour Pink and Seymour Tradition advance our missions.
Each year, on the first Saturday in October, we walk and run through downtown Seymour in the fight against breast cancer.

Recap 2021 - Celebrating 10 Years
After a year of virtual only racing in 2020, we got back to racing IN PERSON for our 10th Annual 5k on Saturday, October 2, 2021. This was a special celebration not only because it was our 10th running but also because we were able to gather together after a long two years without events. We also continued, and will always, our new tradition of virtual participation in SEEING MORE PINK throughout the entire country! In 2020 we had over 1,600 virtual participants in 30 states. In 2021 we saw participants from 24 states!
We love the community aspect of this event and will do everything to ensure the feel of physical connection in our virtual races.
