The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure is a great cause. The event is well run and had a lot of other things to do on race day before and after the run. That is fortunate for me, since I was out with an injury and merely was there to support the runners. Since I had registered well in advance, I still got a race shirt.
The shirt is terrible. It is white and the design is ugly. If any race was begging for a non-white shirt, this would be it. Everyone knows that pink is the color for breast cancer awareness. Why not a pink shirt? If you make this shirt in pink and replace the "running ribbons" with a larger version of the top-of-shirt logo I would be much more likely to wear it than I am with the current design. I won't wear this shirt outside of the house.
This race is a much bigger production than most, so the big time sponsors get a place on the front of the shirt. Unfortunately for them they won't get the exposure since the shirt never gets seen.
Cause: A
Shirt: F
