Save the Date THANK YOU! This year's 2012 BrockTrot was a huge success! Check out 2012 Race Results here...
"As Brock said so many times, 'It's a beautiful day for a race- the human race!' Many thanks to all of the volunteers, the record number of runners and walkers, and Mother Nature for cooperating! What else can you ask for- a great community event that donates all proceeds to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Thank you all again :)" ~Chris Wilkerson "AMAZING JOB ALL!! I think I can speak for everyone at Shakespeare & Company and say that we are SO PROUD to be a part of this wonderful event! You all provide such a great festive atmosphere of health and community, not to mention the fundraising for cancer research. BRAVO!" ~ David Joseph, Shakespeare & Company Our Cause Lung cancer remains the leading cause of all cancer deaths in the United States. A significant number of lung cancer patients have never smoked; 15% of men, 20% of women. Proceeds from the BrockTrot will benefit the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Lowe Thoratic Oncology Program.

Your contributions help support innovative studies and clinical trials at Dana-Farber which will one day make thoratic cancer history. DONATE NOW!
