Join us and come to support family, friends and Breast Cancer Research.
THE PINK BRA RUN is more than a 5K race...it’s a Saturday morning festival in beautiful Old Gretna.
PINK BRA RUN/WALK/BIKE 2024
The Pink Bra Run and Ride is 300 participants who show up in decorated bras to either run/walk 5K along the Mississippi River levee with the beautiful New Orleans skyline in the background. The Pink Bra Bike Ride starts 7:30am at the Algiers ferry landing, and takes bikers on an 8 mile scenic tour, down the levee bike path, through Federal City and Algiers Point, then through Old Gretna to the Pink Bra Runners’ Finish Line Celebration at the Rivershack.
If you are familiar with New Orleanians and their costumes, then this run/walk/ride is sure to be a sight and this year will be even better. Come out and enjoy...even the dogs wear bras. All proceeds benefit Tulane Cancer Center's breast cancer research efforts.
