Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC) will be hosting its annual, statewide Against the Tide multi-sport events as virtual events in 2020. With the health and well-being of participants, volunteers, and sponsors in mind, MBCC will be hosting two virtual events on September 19th and September 26th. Each event will feature a 4-day window to participate (September 17 – 20 for the September 19th event, and September 24 – 27 for the September 26th event).

The virtual event components include 1-mile recreational or competitive swims, ½-mile recreational swim, 5K or 10K runs, 3-mile walk, ½-mile stand-up paddleboard, and 2-mile kayak. For participants who are looking to challenge themselves, there is an Aquathon option, consisting of a 1-mile swim immediately followed by either a 5K or 10K run. All virtual participants will receive a Participant Fun Pack, including an event t-shirt, bib or swim cap, participant medal, and sponsor items. Swim, Run, and Aquathon participants will have the opportunity to submit their finish times to be included on the event’s official results page.

Participants may register as an individual or as part of a team. Registration is $40 per person and families can register for $100 (for up to 5 family members). Participants are encouraged to fundraise beyond the registration fees, as all proceeds support Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition’s unique goal of breast cancer prevention. Prizes will be awarded to top fundraisers.
